Spanberger sparks outrage after sneakily ending women’s sports protections
Many parents in Virginia are rightly enraged that a regulation proposed by former Gov. Glenn Youngkin to bar males from girls’ sports was surreptitiously
shut down by current Gov. Abigail Spanberger. The rule, which was in a years-long approval process, was supported by the Virginia Board of Health, but the board’s chairwoman said she had no idea it had ended. Spanberger did not issue a press release or an announcement when she dropped the regulation in late July, and the news only surfaced this week. The move was “classic Spanberger,” said one delegate. “Say one thing, do another, don’t tell anyone, and ignore them if they ask about it.” Democrats claim to care about equal rights and empowering women, but their actions speak for themselves as they stomp all over women’s right to privacy and a fair playing field.
