Summary

Newell addresses the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee holding a highly charged hearing titled "Standing Up for Women in Sports: Ensuring Opportunity, Fairness, and Safety for Female Athletes." Led by Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), the hearing focused on the participation of transgender women in female athletics and the broader legal interpretations of Title IX.
