| Texas AG Paxton sues NCAA, says group advertises 'women's sports' but games have transgender players |

| [JustTheNews] The attorney general requested that the court grant a permanent injunction that bans the NCAA from allowing biological males to compete in women’s sporting events in Texas, or involving Texas teams. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing the National Collegiate Athletics Association for alleged false advertisement, arguing the NCAA bill its women sports events as competition among females when it in fact a "mixed sex event," because transgender athletes are also allowed to compete. He argues the misrepresentation is in violation of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act and that the NCAA, which oversees more than 1,000 colleges and universities nationwide, has violated the act by not disclosing which team members are transgender. The Republican attorney general requested that the court grant a permanent injunction that bans the NCAA from allowing biological males to compete in women’s sporting events in Texas, or involving Texas teams. Paxton said he would also accept a ruling that forces the NCAA to stop its marketing of "co-ed competitions" as women's events. “The NCAA is intentionally and knowingly jeopardizing the safety and wellbeing of women by deceptively changing women’s competitions into co-ed competitions,” Paxton said in a statement. “When people watch a women’s volleyball game, for example, they expect to see women playing against other women – not biological males pretending to be something they are not. Radical ‘gender theory’ has no place in college sports.” The lawsuit is also requesting the NCAA pays a civil penalty of up to $10,000 for all DTPA violations, and any other "relief to which the State may be entitled."

| #1 Paxton has his issues but I think he is one of the few that is engaging in the needed conflict. |
