Riley Gaines urges AOC to change position on trans athletes in women’s sports

As national Debate about Trans -Inclusion In the past few weeks, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, DN.Y., has reached a boiling point in the past few weeks. Now the conservative influencer Riley Gaines has expanded the invitation to the congresses to join the other side of the problem.

“I absolutely think The AOCOf course she has a platform, it is in a position of influence and power, and I think it could influence the democratic members to cross the border and return to reason. I think there is a mandatory responsibility of every member of the congress, “Gaines told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview.

Gaines believes that if Ocasio-Cortez suddenly stood against trans-inclusion in girls’ and women’s sports, that it would be “performative”, but that this would still benefit the political reputation of the congress members.

“Although I do not agree with many other things outside of this topic, for which AOC is, I would definitely welcome you or any Democrat [for speaking out against trans inclusion]”, Said Gaines.

“I don’t believe [trans inclusion in women’s sports] It is certainly something from which she wants to distance herself. ”

Ocasio-Cortez recently triggered this topic directly when the House of Representatives voted on January 14 on the protection of women and girls in sports. On this day she gave a passionate, controversial speech on the house floor, where she claimed that the law would authorize sexual predators of children and “trans-girls are girls”.

The speech inflamed immense counter -reactions and ridicule, including the Democrats, of which one Fox News Digital said that they and others were not registered by the party.

Since then, President Donald Trump has adopted an executive order in the Trans -Inclusion in women and girls sports at national level, and the NCAA has changed its gender -specific justification in order to comply with the order. In the meantime, several democratic states of Trump have spoken open, which initiates the investigation of the federal government against these states and possibly cuts off the financing in response to financing.

On Monday, the protection of women and girls in sports in sports will receive a vote on the Senate floor.

Ocasio-Cortez has not dealt with this problem, although in the past he is a remarkable advocate of the trans recording. She has only a recent exchange between Trump and Maine Governor Janet Mills on this topic with a Bluesky post with the inscription “This is how it is made.” However, she has not dealt with Trump’s command or the topic of trans -inclusion as a whole in detail.

During a virtual town hall, which was held by Ocasio-Cortez on February 21, she did not go into the problem, even though FOX News Digital had submitted a question. The Ocasio-Cortez office did not answer several inquiries about comments on the subject of FOX News Digital via email.

Ocasio-Cortez mentioned during an interview “The weekly show with Jon Stewart” Podcast Is Jan. 23.

“If we allow ourselves to constantly be distracted by these cultural wars to be distracted by trans people every day, and the answer is not that we only let these people be attacked, it is that we say: ‘What do you do, man?’ I think we have to take such a thought for these people that it is not even a debate, ”said Ocasio-Cortez.

“How, we have to understand and see the bait for what it is, but we don’t take the bait by simply eroding these rights and walking on the track.”

But Gaines is not surprised by Ocasion-Cortez and other Democrats, suddenly from the question of trans inclusion in the sports of girls.

“We shouldn’t be surprised that this is the position that AOC takes,” said Gaines. “Number one that loses its grip and number two, it means that you try to distance yourself from your coordination documents or whatever that may be because you know that this is a problem. And it shows that you have no conviction. From the beginning, this problem was a farce.”

Ocasio-Cortez previously voted for several bills that would enable trans-athletes to play nationwide in sports and girls, including the Equal Opportunities Act and the Transgender Bill of Rights. The congress women previously suggested that the Green Party in an X -Post, which reacted to the VP candidate of the Green Party in 2024, was “predatory”, which spoke out against Trans -Inclusion in women’s sports.

Previously, Ocasio-Cortez even criticized the former President Joe Biden, who made several efforts to enable transclusion because they did not do enough to activate this.

In April 2023, when bidding suggested a change to the title IX, which would prohibit bans for trans-athletes in the sports of girls, but allow prohibitions for students, “based on a number of sex-related criteria that are unique for their community,” said Ocasio-Cortez.

“Absolutely no reason for the Biden administrator to do this. It is unsustainable and embarrassing,” she wrote this month on X. “The administrator can still go back and you should. It is a shame.”

However, the problem of trans inclusion in the sports of women and girls has become a widely contradictory problem last year, and data indicate that this even influenced the result of the 2024 elections.

A current New York Times/Ipsos survey It was found that the vast majority of Americans, including the majority of Democrats, do not believe that transgender athletes can take part in women’s sports.
