During a congressional hearing on Tuesday, Riley Gaines spoke out against allowing biological males to compete in women's sports, concluding her opening statement by calling out Democratic Rep. Summer Lee of Pennsylvania. Gaines said that if her testimony makes her "transphobic," then she thinks Lee's opening remarks make her a "misogynist."

Shortly after the next witness began delivering remarks, Lee interrupted, and in what was apparently a reference to Gaines' comments, moved to get "the gentlewoman's words taken down." But shortly thereafter, Lee moved to withdraw the point of order.

Lee had said during her opening statement that she expected to hear "transphobic bigotry" during the hearing.

Gaines said that a school that knowingly permits a male to take a space on a women's team or to play in a women's game is denying an opportunity to a female and running afoul of Title IX. "Inclusion cannot be prioritized over safety and fairness," she said.

Gaines is urging women to refuse to compete in events against biological males and offering to financially compensate those who miss out on money for taking such a stand.

"Any woman who doesn't compete and loses out on prize money, I will happily pay the fee out of my own pocket. In any sport. Stop. Playing. Their. Game," she wrote when sharing an OutKick tweet about two transgender cyclists taking the top two finishes in women's races.
