In response to “Maine’s Transgender Madness” from the Wall Street Journal, I support Rep. Laurel Libby’s stance against males in women’s sports. The article notes how Maine’s House censured Libby for posting about a transgender athlete winning a girls’ pole vault title after competing in boys’ events. This isn’t “doxxing” — it’s a fair challenge to an unfair policy. Female athletes deserve a level field, not competition tilted by biological males. Libby’s free speech shouldn’t be silenced.
The censure, stripping her voting rights, is a power grab that disenfranchises her constituents, as the article warns. Trump’s Title IX order defends women’s sports, yet Maine Democrats dodge debate by gagging dissent. Girls’ sports must remain for girls. Readers, urge your representatives to reverse this censure and protect athletic fairness. Act now for our daughters!
