AAF Fights to Keep Women’s Sports and Private Spaces Women-Only

Advancing American Freedom continues its effort to fight the rampant gender ideology of the Biden-Harris Administration policy that reinterprets “sex discrimination” in Title IX to include discrimination based on sexual orientation and so-called “gender identity.”

AAF led a coalition of 36 other amici in an amicus brief in Tennessee v. Cardona, arguing that this reinterpretation of Title IX would harm women’s sports, and arguing that there is no excuse, in any stage of life, for men to be competing in women’s sports.

“Women’s athletic spaces must be protected for a variety of reasons, not least of which is that such protection is essential to encourage the years of hard work and dedication necessary for athletic excellence,” said AAF General Counsel J. Marc Wheat. “The Biden-Harris Administration needs to be told that female athletes deserve to be able to compete against other women, not men, and women in general deserve private spaces. The Biden-Harris Administration’s rule would use Title IX to strip women and girls of the very benefits it was designed to ensure.”

AAF Fights SEC’s Mass-Surveillance of Americans

Advancing American Freedom and 48 other amici supported a challenge to the constitutionality of a mass surveillance operation against the American people. In their amicus brief in Davidson v. Gensler, AAF and its fellow amici argued that the beleaguered Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is circumventing Congress by compelling private entities it regulates to build and pay for a program to snoop on every household that owns stock or an IRA.

“The CAT (consolidated audit trail) database is unconstitutional, contrary to statutory law, and would inevitably be hacked by our foreign enemies and by malign actors at home to harm America and Americans. The bottom line is, this information is none of the government’s business,” said AAF General Counsel J. Marc Wheat. “The government has a history of leaking sensitive information and of having its databases hacked. The CAT would create both the opportunity and the inevitability for that problem on a massive scale.”

It is believed to be the largest surveillance program initiated since 9/11, and the second largest surveillance program operated by the American government, smaller only than that of the National Security Agency. Without authorization or appropriation from Congress, the SEC has been building this system since 2012. It has usurped the congressional power of the purse by compelling entities it regulates, entities that are in no position to protest, to pay for CAT’s construction and operation.

“Federal regulatory agencies are circling this case like jackals, watching to see if the Courts will allow them to tear away at powers the Constitution reserves only to Congress, or the People,” said Wheat. “This may be the most alarming Constitutional case of the entire Biden-Harris Administration.”
