When asked, “Should we keep men out of women’s sports?” the vast majority of the American people respond with a resounding “Yes!” May Mailman, Deputy Assistant to the President and Senior Policy Strategist, joins Freedom to Learn to discuss executive orders related to protecting women's sports and spaces and restoring biological truth. We explore the implications of these orders, public support for reality and common sense, and the federal Title IX investigations into states (including Maine!), school districts, and athletic associations. The discussion highlights the importance of defining sex and the need for legislative, as well as executive action.
