包括运动员家长在内的批评人士周五表达了愤怒，此前弗吉尼亚州州长阿比盖尔·斯潘伯格的政府悄然叫停了一项原本要求学校体育按性别分组的规则制定程序。
这项终止基于性别的校际体育保护措施的举动，是围绕跨性别认同的生理男性是否应参加女子体育赛事的辩论的最新进展。
“看到这则新闻时我惊呆了，”前弗吉尼亚州众议员、来自彼得斯堡的共和党人金·泰勒周五告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。“作为一名女儿的母亲，我对保护弗吉尼亚州女孩的隐私、安全和机会竟变得如此有争议感到愤怒。”
“斯潘伯格州长本有机会站出来支持女性和女孩，但她却背弃了我们。我们的女儿绝不应该为了他人的政治议程牺牲自己的隐私或公平竞争环境。”

泰勒在里士满任职期间专注于孕产妇和儿童问题，并在去年 unsuccessful 的连任竞选中成为暗杀威胁的目标。
来自斯图尔特的共和党州众议员雷恩·威廉姆斯将此举称为“斯潘伯格的一贯作风”。
“说一套做一套，不告诉任何人，有人询问时就置之不理，”他告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。
前鲍尔州立大学篮球运动员、印第安纳州众议员米歇尔·戴维斯补充说，斯潘伯格似乎在“把弗吉尼亚州往回拉”。

“女子体育就是为女性设立的，保护公平竞争环境本不该有争议，”来自怀特兰的共和党议员戴维斯说。
“民主党人一直谈论赋予女性权力，但我们却不断看到民主党领导人撤销对女运动员的保护。弗吉尼亚州的女孩理应得到更好的待遇。”
福克斯新闻数字频道联系了斯潘伯格和扬金的一名代表置评。
据《里士满时报-快讯》报道，前州长格伦·扬金启动了禁止生理男性参加女子校际体育赛事的程序，但这一原本预计耗时数年的流程被其继任者终止。
“我们没有推进拟议中的监管规定，”弗吉尼亚州卫生专员卡梅伦·韦伯在接受《里士满时报-快讯》采访时谈及他的机构和州长办公室时表示。
这项在扬金时代得到弗吉尼亚州卫生委员会单独支持的规定，原本旨在“禁止生理男性参加弗吉尼亚州官方的女子体育团队和赛事，并防止生理男性使用女性可能处于任何程度裸露状态的指定女性空间”。

这项决定于7月底作出，但直到本周才被曝光。斯潘伯格在此期间未发布任何新闻稿或公告。
与此同时，由扬金任命的州卫生委员会主席告诉《时报-快讯》，她对该流程即将终止一事毫不知情。

威廉姆斯补充说，这一事件表明“民主党人仍在争先恐后地公开歧视我们的女子运动员”，目前有多个州正在就是否在体育领域区分跨性别学生展开辩论。

Spanberger sparks outrage after sneakily ending Youngkin-era women’s sports protections

Virginia’s health commissioner confirmed the proposed ban on transgender girls in female scholastic sports was dropped

Critics, including parents of athletes, expressed outrage Friday after Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s administration quietly shut down a rulemaking process that would have required school sports to be divided by sex.
The move to end protections for scholastic sports based on sex is the latest development in the debate over whether biological males who identify as transgender should compete in girls’ sports.
“My jaw dropped when I saw the news,” former Del. Kim Taylor, R-Petersburg, told Fox News Digital on Friday. “As a mom of a daughter, I’m furious that protecting the privacy, safety, and opportunities of Virginia’s girls has somehow become controversial.”
“Governor Spanberger had a chance to stand up for women and girls, and instead she turned her back. Our daughters should never be asked to sacrifice their privacy or a fair playing field for someone else’s political agenda.”

Taylor focused on maternal and children’s issues during her time in Richmond and was the target of an assassination threat during her unsuccessful re-election bid last year.
Del. Wren Williams, R-Stuart, called the move “classic Spanberger.”
“Say one thing, do another, don’t tell anyone, and ignore them if they ask about it,” he told Fox News Digital.
Former Ball State basketball player and Indiana state Rep. Michelle Davis added that Spanberger appears to be “taking Virginia backwards.”

“Women’s sports exist for women, and protecting a fair playing field shouldn’t be controversial,” said Davis, R-Whiteland.
“Democrats talk constantly about empowering women, yet we continue to see Democratic leaders roll back protections for female athletes. Virginia’s girls deserve better.”
Fox News Digital reached out to Spanberger and a representative for Youngkin for comment.
Former Gov. Glenn Youngkin started the process of barring biological males from girls’ scholastic sports, but the process, which was expected to take years, was ended by his successor, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
“[We] did not proceed with the proposed regulation,” Virginia Health Commissioner Cameron Webb told the Richmond Times-Dispatch of his agency and the governor’s office.
The rule, supported by the separate Virginia Board of Health during the Youngkin era, would have prevented “biological males from participating in organized female-only athletic teams and competitions in Virginia, and to prevent biological males from using designated female spaces where females are likely to be in any state of undress.”

The decision was made in late July but did not surface until this week. Spanberger did not issue a press release or announcement on it in the interim.
Meanwhile, the Youngkin-appointed chairwoman of the State Board of Health told the Times-Dispatch she had no idea the process was ending.

Williams added that the case shows “Democrats continue to fall all over themselves to openly discriminate against our female athletes,” as several states continue debating whether to separate transgender students in athletics.
