As someone who has been covering transgender rights for years, let me be clear about something:
When you see capitulation over sports, know that it NEVER stops at sports.
And in fact, Turek illustrated this just yesterday when he embraced a federal ban on funding for all trans care.

Josh Turek in Iowa now takes the strongest anti-trans stance of any Democrat yet.
“Josh opposes taxpayer-funded sex changes, and anyone who says otherwise is lying,” said Hannah Goss, a spokeswoman for the Turek campaign.
This would include Medicaid and adult care.

Now, Bossier City, Louisiana is on the verge of becoming the first to do so by local criminal ordinance, with 6 months in jail.

It was never about "trans athletes should just compete in their assigned sex at birth."
It was always about invalidation of the athlete's gender identity.

The Trump administration has announced it is targeting major LGBTQ+ healthcare centers, threatening to shut them down unless they stop providing trans youth care.
It appears to violate, at least in spirit, a court order in Oregon stopping them from doing this.
