US Olympic committee excludes trans women from competitions

Trump Ordinance
Olympic committee of the USA prohibits trans women participation


US President Trump is working to ban trans women from participating in competitions. Three years before the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, he is a big step further.

Three years before the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, the National Olympic and Paralympic Committee (Usopc) of the United States has de facto forbidden participation in Olympic sports.



Usopc published an updated version of the “athlete security guideline” on Monday. It states that the association will continue to work with other places to ensure that “women have a safe and fair competition environment” that is compatible with the regulation 14201. This regulation issued by US President Donald Trump prohibits trans women from participating in competitions for women.

Donald Trump attacks the rights of trans people

The word transmen or trans women does not occur on the 27 pages, but the wording is so clear that US media also describe the ban as such. According to the reports, the Usopc also sent a letter to the national umbrella organizations in which it is said that they had “an obligation” to obey Trump.

Trump has repeatedly attacked the rights of trans people since the beginning of his second term and is currently arguing with the US state of California about the participation of trans women in competitions at high school level. The 79-year-old always threatens to delete funding.
