After alienating democratic voters with non -underpinned allegations that the protection of women and girls in the sports law would strengthen children’s predators to give gender studies to young girls, the two most prominent figures on the left in the House of Representatives do not address the question.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, DN.Y. and rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, DN.Y. was among 206 Democrats who voted against a bill that would prevent transient athletes from competing against girls and women last week.

Jeffries and Ocasio-Cortez pushed the non-built allegations that it would expose girls to gender studies from children’s predators. There is no language in the bill suggesting that gender surveys would occur, and Republicans claimed evidence of birth sex could be determined by a birth certificate.

Jeffries and Ocasio-Cortez have not answered any more requests for comment from Pakinomist Digital about their arguments, subsequently setbacks from democratic voters who have said they are leaving the party in response to the arguments and data suggesting that a majority of Democrats Is against transgender inclusion in women’s sports.

However, Ocasio-Cortez addressed the idea of ​​cultural war about transient people who were a distraction during an interview about “The Daily Show” on Thursday.

“When we constantly allow ourselves to be distracted by these cultural wars around transgender people, it is a new thing every day, and the answer is not that we just let these people be attacked, that is that we say, ‘What are you doing, man? ‘ I think we have to do standing for these people just such a reflection that it is not even a debate, “Ocasio-Cortez said.

“As we have to understand and see the bait for what it is, but we do not take the bait by letting these rights just erode and go by the way.”

How transgenderism in sports changed the election in 2024 and ignited a national counterculture

Ocasio-Cortez’s proposal for the party to make the protection of transient people a reflection come after she delivered a tirade in defense of trans-beautiful people and, in contrast to the protection of women and girls in the sports law on the floor of the representatives’ house in the last week.

Her rant asked widespread mockery, and the Democrats have since talked about their discomfort for her and the party’s handling of the question.

Prominent Rutgers lawyer professor Gary Francione, a lifelong Democrat and spokesman for LGBTQ rights, Pakinomist told Digital that he left the Democratic Party in response to its opposition to the bill.

“It just made me very sad because it screamed out of a lack of integrity, lack of honesty,” Francione told Pakinomist Digital in an exclusive interview. “That’s the way you are struggling with matches? By trying to offend other people who are against you and disagree with you and suggest that they are children’s corridors or pedophiles? It seems you have lost the game.. .. I don’t know how they ever come back from this.

Francione said many of the other Democrats in his network of law and education share his disdain for the party’s response to the bill and will also leave the party.

“I can say confidential about the people I know who are Democrats that I have talked to, the vast majority of them are very unhappy with all these things and feels that the party has lost its way,” Francione said. “I know a couple who said they will [unregister]”

Data on voter registration suggests that the party loses members of Francione’s home state of Pennsylvania. However, there is no specific information on why is available. The prominent political organizer Scott Pressler announced on the X Voter registration data shows that the number of democratic voters fell by 24,867 from January 14 to January 21, the week that followed the representative’s consultation.

Just two Democrats joined the Republican majority to vote for the bill, representatives Henry Cuellar and Vicente Gonzalez, both of Texas. Their decision to defect from the rest of the party and vote for the protection of women and girls in sports reflecting a growing position for many voters in their party and independent, according to recent data.

A recent New York Times/Ipsos Survey Found the vast majority of Americans, including a majority of Democrats, do not think transnry athletes should be allowed to compete in women’s sports. Of the 2,128 people who were examined, 79% biological men who identify themselves as women said should not be allowed to participate in women’s sports. Of the 1,025 people who identified themselves as Democrats or inclined Democrat, 67%said trans -grinding athletes should not be allowed to compete with women.

The protection of women and girls in the Sports Act is on their way to the Senate after passing in parliament, and it will need more votes from the Democrats to get past a Filibuster and move to President Donald Trump’s desk.

Senator Marsha Blackburn, R-tenn, told Pakinomist Digital in an exclusive interview, she expects and hopes the bill will get the democratic voices it needs to pass the Senate.

“I would expect there to be. I hope there would be, ”she said.

“Many of my friends who are Democrats will tell you that they think title IX is one thing and having biological men competing against women are inappropriate. And they will have opportunities for their daughters or nies or Children’s Books.

Blackburn added that she has no “no idea” what the Democrats suggested that the law would expose girls to gender examinations thought when they made this argument.

“I feel very difficult to think that the protection of girls in sports would have such a negative effect,” Blackburn said. “Looking at the content of the bill is the best way to argue against it and know that a large majority of Americans support protecting girls in girls’ sports.”
