Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has announced a lawsuit against US Masters Swimming (USMS) for defying President Trump’s order to protect women and girls by allowing men to compete in a women’s swim competition in May.
In February, President Donald Trump signed a landmark executive order ensuring that biological men cannot compete in women’s sports.
The signing ceremony, held at the White House, featured President Trump surrounded by young female athletes, symbolizing the administration’s commitment to safeguarding opportunities for women and girls in sports.
“Under the Trump administration, we will defend the proud tradition of female athletes, and we will not allow men to beat up, injure, and cheat our women and our girls. From now on, women’s sports will be ONLY FOR WOMEN!” Trump said during the signing ceremony.
Paxton shared details of the lawsuit, writing on X, “BREAKING: I’m suing U.S. Masters Swimming for engaging in illegal practices by allowing men to compete in women’s competitions. The organization has cowered to radical activists pushing gender warfare, and this lawsuit will hold USMS accountable for its actions.”
