Alex Mooney introduced a bill recently that would designate one month every year as “Fidelity Month,” with the hope that Americans will unite in rededicating themselves “to the values of faith, family and patriotism.” Rep.

Fox News – Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., met with N.C. State swimming star Kylee Alons on Wednesday, and he wrote on social media that she told him a story from the 2022 NCAA Championships.

Steube said Alons told him that she decided to change in a storage closet instead of out in the open because Lia Thomas was allowed to change in the women’s locker room.

“Today I met with Kylee, the most decorated swimmer in NC State history,” Steube tweeted. “She told me how she changed in a storage closet at the NCAA finals rather than experience the sexual harassment that comes with undressing in front of Will ‘Lia’ Thomas – a biological male who insisted on being in the female locker room.”

Roll Call – House Republicans passed a bill Thursday that would bar transgender women and girls from playing on athletic teams that correspond with their gender identity, a key campaign promise that Democrats denounced as cruel and discriminatory. “For thousands of years in human history, we have recognized as a species that there are women and there are men who are obviously biologically different,” the measure’s chief sponsor, Rep. Greg Steube, R.-Fla., said during floor debate Wednesday. “Yet over the last several years there has been a perversion in our culture by the enemy, and the left completely embraced the lie to erase the lines of gender and to convince you … gender is fluid and can be whatever you want.”
