Legislature Approves “Fairness In Women’s Sports Act” Day After Biological Male Sets Women’s Swimming Record


The day after a biological male set a new pool record at the Ivy League women’s swimming championship, a bill that would ban transgendered women from competing against biological women in athletic events in Wyoming cleared a Senate hurdle.

Sen. Wendy Schuler’s “Fairness in Women’s Act” legislation on Friday was approved for introduction by a vote of 25-4, sending it on the Senate Education Committee for review.

In her floor remarks in support of the bill, Schuler, R-Evanston, referenced the accomplishments of Lia Thomas, a transgendered swimmer from Penn State who had competed for three years as a man before competing in women’s events as a transgendered swimmer in her fourth year.

“As a male, Lia Thomas was ranked 462nd in the NCAA. But as a transgender athlete, she’s ranked No. 1 in the NCAA,” Schuler said.
