TALLAHASSEE (CBSMiami/NSF) — The Florida House is poised to pass a measure that would bar transgender females from participating in girls’ and women’s high-school and college sports, amid fierce opposition from Democrats and warnings about potential financial repercussions. The House on Tuesday took up the so-called “Fairness In Women’s Sports Act” (HB 1475), positioning it for a vote on Wednesday. The proposal would make participation in athletics contingent on determining students’ “biological sex,” a disputed term that refers to the sex assigned at birth.

Major League Baseball just missed a great opportunity to seed new markets, build its brand and address growing anti-Asian sentiment in the United States. Instead of moving its all-star game from Georgia to Colorado , it should have taken this summer’s game farther afield to a surprising new venue: Taiwan. Major League Baseball (MLB) decided to skip previously scheduled Atlanta as this year's All-Star host over what it considers to be Georgia’s assault on democracy and voting rights. The MLB should have gone one step further and moved the games overseas to help protect and defend global democracy. It’s too late for 2021, but it’s time to consider a future high viewership, mid-season game in Taiwan.
