Urged NCAA to ban transgender athletes from women's sports

The NCAA updated its policy in 2022 on transgender athletes, aligning itself with Olympic standard. The NCAA requires transgender athletes to give documentation that meets sports standards for testosterone levels at three points in time:

1. Prior to any competition during the regular season;
2. Prior to the first competition in an NCAA championship event; and
3. Prior to any competition in the non-championship segment.

Don't use race to divide us

A: I think the Democratic Party openly encourages hostility between races in this country by using inflammatory language to divide us. Racism is inexcusable and I never have or will condone it. I have always taught it isn't your race that makes you who you are, but who you are on the inside. Good and evil come in all shapes and colors, and when there is discrimination by any race against another, it must be called out.

Opposes laws against discrimination over sexual orientation

Tommy Tuberville: No. Opposes laws protecting people against discrimination because of sexual orientation.

Doug Jones: Yes. Credits his gay son with helping him to change his views. Co-sponsored anti-discrimination Equality Act.

Strongly anti-gender identity, according to AFA survey.

The AFA inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws'? Self-description: (American Family Association helps produce iVoterGuides): `Grounded in God; rooted in research`; they `thoroughly investigate candidates`; when they cannot `evaluate with confidence, they receive an `Insufficient` rating` (& we exclude)
