Robert Kennedy Jr. Opposes Allowing Trans Women To Compete In Female Sports

Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in a new interview that he does not support transgender women participating in women's sports.

A Democrat told CNN on Saturday that "biological men" threaten the integrity of women's athletics.

"I am biologically against male participation in women's sports," said Kennedy, 69.

"I think women have worked so hard to advance women's sports over the past 30 years. I've seen it and I don't think it's fair."

Kennedy, who announced his candidacy on April 19, said he and President Biden were "real at odds" over his lack of support for transgender participation.

Earlier this month, the Biden administration unveiled a proposal to prevent district schools and colleges from banning transgender athletes entirely.

However, last week, House Republicans passed a bill that would bar transgender athletes from participating in women's sports by changing Title IX protections that apply only to female biologists.

No Democrats supported the measure, although ten abstained.

President Biden has said he would veto the bill if it were on his desk.
