MADISON, Wisc., Dec. 16, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ -- Representative Brad Klippert of the state of Washington will present a bill that would prevent transgenders from competing in some sports against girls.

House Bill 2201 would prohibit students assigned the male gender at birth from competing "with and against female students in athletic activities."

According to the bill, the sport must be intended only for female students in an individual competition sport like golf or track.

"It's been brought to my attention on multiple occasions by constituents, athletes whose first gender was male are competing against females and dominating sports," Rep. Klippert said.

Steve McConkey operates 4 Winds Christian Athletics, a Madison, Wisconsin worldwide ministry that stands up for Christian athletes.

"We applaud brave people like Representative Klippert," states McConkey. "We believe transgenders should be eliminated from all sports, but he is making an effort to protect girls from those who are trying to upstage them in their events. We need politicians with his courage to stand up before it becomes more widespread."

In 2003, McConkey started fighting against the International Olympic Committee for allowing transgenders in the Olympics. He was the only one who stood against this publicly.

From there, the transgender movement spread to state high schools, the NCAA, NFL, NBA, MLB, and the military. Steve has fought this LGBT agenda every step of the way.

McConkey suggested to Rasmussen polling that they should do a US polls on transgender athletes. The latest poll shows 51% oppose transgenders competing, 29% support, and 20% are undecided.

Also, 4 WINDS fights the Freedom From Religion atheists located in Madison, Wisconsin, located near 4 WINDS' offices.
