WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Rep. Dan Newhouse (WA-04) released the following statement after the Supreme Court issued its decision in favor of Idaho and West Virginia in West Virginia v. B.P.J. and Little v. Hecox.
"I welcome today's Supreme Court ruling in favor of Idaho and West Virginia's laws preventing biological men from competing against biological women in athletic competitions," said Rep. Newhouse.
Newhouse continued, "Female athletes in Washington state have been forced to compete against male athletes due to Bob Ferguson, Nick Brown, Chris Reykdal, Jamie Pedersen and Laurie Jinkins' extreme policies. This SCOTUS decision is a win for the girls and their families who have fought for safety and fairness in sports, especially Ahnaleigh Wilson of East Wenatchee and Frances Staudt of Tumwater, who have worked tirelessly on behalf of their peers."
