On February 15, 2022, Young Woman for America Ambassador Halli Gravley testified before the Kentucky House Standing Committee on Education in support of HB 23, the Save Women’s Sports Act.

As a female athlete from Kentucky and having just finished her senior year swim season the week prior, Halli was able to provide a vital perspective in this discussion. While the ACLU testified against the bill as well as two young elementary-age biological males identifying as females, the most important voice in these debates must be the voice of female athletes.

You can watch Halli’s testimony or read her statement in full here.

The bill passed the House Education Committee, and we are looking forward to the day when the option to protect women’s sports in Kentucky ends up on Gov. Andy Beshear’s (Democrat) desk. Read the Kentucky House Majority Caucus press release that contains quotes from Halli’s testimony.
