State Board of Regents Should Leave Girl’s Sports Alone:
New York State Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar
Calls on Governor to Inform Public on Vote

“The unelected New York State Board of Regents may vote as early as next week to end girls-only sports in New York State. The vote, which was postponed after it became a hot button political issue shortly before Election Day, would permanently allow boys to play on girls high school sports teams across the Empire State if there is no corresponding boys team in that sport — volleyball and field hockey teams are common examples. The radical policy enactment would effectively end girls sports as we know it.

“Poll after poll has shown that the public wants traditional, girls-only sports protected in New York, but the gender-bending social engineers in Albany are oddly determined to erase all distinctions between the sexes (good luck with that.) It’s hard to believe we’re even having this conversation, frankly.

“The New York State Conservative Party calls on Governor Hochul to inform the public immediately if the Board of Regents plans to take this issue up at its December 9-10 meetings. The future of girls sports is on the line. The public deserves to know that.”
