On Thursday, the U.S. Senate will bring U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville's (R-Auburn) Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act to the floor for a vote, his office confirmed with 1819 News.
Earlier this month, Tuberville had openly lamented on "The Megyn Kelly Show" that the GOP-controlled Senate had yet to bring his bill preserving Title IX protections for female athletes to a vote.
Megyn Kelly announced on Wednesday that all GOP senators would be voting in favor of Tuberville's legislation. Seven Democrats would need to vote "yes" to move the bill forward.
