The House passed a bill barring schools that receive federal funds from allowing transgender athletes to participate in women’s sports.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I wonder if it will be rushed through the senate so Biden can veto it before Trump takes office? :shrug:

Doesn't matter if it's rushed or not.
Gonna have a hard (as in, "nearly impossible") time getting through the Senate.

... at least so long as the filibuster remains in force.
