While women and girls across America are celebrating the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling upholding bans on transgender athletes in West Virginia and Idaho, Connecticut’s Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities is doubling down on erasing women’s sports.
In an absolutely tone-deaf statement following the June 30, 2026 B.P.J. decision, the CHRO proudly declared that the ruling “does NOT limit the right of transgender women and girls to participate in sports in CT.”
Let that sink in.
A so-called “Human Rights” commission is openly misappropriating the words “women” and “girls” to describe biological males — and boasting about it.
“In Connecticut, we proudly and loudly protect civil rights,” the CHRO proclaims. Just not the civil rights of actual women and girls who are being displaced, injured, or robbed of scholarships, podiums, and opportunities by biological men in female categories.
The commission vows to continue enforcing its radical “gender identity” antidiscrimination policies (which have been in place since 2011) to ensure “transgender women and girls remain protected and able to participate fully in sports throughout our state.”
Notice the language.
They don’t say “transgender athletes.”
Instead, they specifically say “transgender women and girls.”
Why?
