On Tuesday, House Subcommittee for Healthcare and Financial Services became the first legislative body to address transgender athletes in women's sports, as former Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines and ex-Oberlin lacrosse coach Kim Russell testified in favour of a ban. Gaines has persistently advocated against the inclusion of trans women in sports since 2022, when she tied for fifth place in the 200-yard NCAA freestyle championship with University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas, a transgender woman who never competed against males. Gaines has met with politicians including Heisman winner and former US Senate candidate Brent Herschel Walker and Senator Rand Paul, who have all endorsed their efforts to prohibit transgender people from participating in female sports. Russell, a third member of the Independent Women's Forum, was suspended as the women's lacrosse team coach at Oberlin College in Ohio after speaking out against transgender athletes in female sports. Russell has claimed that she was moved to a writing position that barred her from directly teaching students as a result of her views on transgender athletes in women's sports.

Victoria Landing - the teen who died in 1994 - is responsible for the name.

They are known for the opulent shindigs at their Virginia mansion, which includes a series of cocktails and a line-up of some of the most popular celebrities on the right. The groups at the Conservative Political Action Conferences have become part of legend, with late nights in hotel suites, alcoholic beverages, and on-the-nose remarks that may result in the cancellation of public speaking. However, in recent months, Matt Schlapp's fame and image in the country's capital have been tarnished due to misconduct charges against him.

Warnock came in second place in the general election, beating his Republican challenger by 1,943,737 votes to 1,907,272 votes, or 0.9 percent.
