West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey organized Riley Gaines Wednesday while he signed Riley Gaines in the law, the definitions of “man” and “woman” codified in the Studies Act.
According to the text of the measure, it confirms “again a long -term meaning (s)” of sex, male and female in the state law, keeps the toilets of women, sleeping quarters, Dressing rooms And other private facilities for the only use of women – to prevent “abuse, intimidation, sexual abuse and violence that men commit”.
A law with a similar name has already been signed in the law in Georgia that is specifically focused on sport, because Gaines has quickly ascended as a conservative political icon in the three years since its notorious draw with transgender swimmer Lia Thomas in the 2022 NCAA Women’s Swimming Championships.
For Gaines, seeing state legislation, to prevent similar incidents that come over other female athletes is named after her, is ‘an honor’.

“There is no greater honor than having your name to something that is as fundamental and important as the defense of women’s rights and biological reality,” Gaines said in a statement. “The Riley Gaines Act only defines gender-based terms such as male and woman in the status of the state to prevent un chosen bureaucrats from re-interpreting these words to mean what they want them to mean. The majority of the American people know what a woman is and it is time for our laws to do too.”
The movement of Gaines to protect women against transatletes has grown into a national movement with a whole merchandising -industry and even became one of the greatest political joker signs in 2024. President Donald Trump signed an executive order to prevent translations on women’s and girls sports on 5 February.

But even with the executive order and a total of 27 states that have their own laws to combat the inclusion of Transatleet, Gaines believes that there is more work to do to combat the issue.
“Contrary to what some think, since President Trump is back in the White House, the War on Woke has not yet won.” There is more work to do, but leaders such as President Trump and Governor Morrisey have have their way, “said Gaines.
Various states, including California, Maine, Minnesota and Massachusetts, have continued to compete with women. The US Senate recently did not accept the protection of women and girls in the Sports Act after the democratic minority had blocked the bill through the Filibuster.

“It’s never what I saw doing myself” Fox News Digital told In an exclusive interview.
“But now, of course, with this issue and more, I would say the entire America-first agenda. I am just so passionate about it, I give it so deep about it, and I think it is great, so we will see. It is absolutely not something that I would exclude. I don’t think I am so crazy because I think you might do that.
