HB1387, a bill to help ensure fairness in women’s sports, passed out of the House last week. Thank you for making calls and praying. Your efforts made a difference!
The bill is now headed to the Senate Education and Health Committee and could be voted on Thursday morning, February 16. It is important that the Chairman and members of the committee hear from you.
Fair competition and equality in women’s sports are being threatened, and this legislation will combat that. Individual male born athletes should not be eligible to participate on an athletic team that is exclusively for females – from kindergarten to high school to college.
Many biological girls train and work hard to excel in their chosen sport with the goal of a college scholarship. When a biological boy who thinks he’s a girl is allowed to compete with the biological girls because of his natural endurance and strength, he steals the prize. This ought not to be so.

ACTION: Contact the members of the Senate Education and Health Committee and ask them to vote yes on HB 1387. The committee members and their contact information is below my signature. If you are a member of CWA of Virginia, be sure to let them know.
Please forward this information to family and friends.
Thank you for your prayer and action!
Looking Unto Jesus,
