The governor of Virginia Occidental, Patrick Morrisey, organized Riley Gaines On Wednesday while signing the Riley Gaines Law, encoding definitions of “man” and “woman” in state law.
According to the text of the measure, “reaffirms the meaning of long data[s]”Of sex, man and woman in state law, retains the bathrooms of women, bedrooms, changing rooms and other private facilities for the exclusive use of women, to prevent” abuse, harassment, sexual assault and violence committed by men. “
A law of a similar name has already been signed in the law in Georgia specifically focused on sports, since Gaines has quickly ascended as a conservative political icon in the three years after his infamous link with the transgender swimmer Lia Thomas in the female female championship of the NCAA of 2022.
For Gaines, see state legislation, to help prevent incidents similar to other female athletes, which are named after it is “an honor.”

“There is no greater honor than having its name attached to something as fundamental and significant as the defense of women’s rights and biological reality,” Gaines said in a statement. “Riley Gaines’ law simply defines terms based on sex as man and woman in the State Statute to prevent bureaucrats from reinterpreting these words to mean what they want to mean. Most Americans know what a woman is and it is time for our laws to also.”
Gaines’ movement to protect women from Trans athletes has become a national movement with a entire marketing industry and even became one of the largest political wild cards in 2024. President Donald Trump signed an executive order to prevent Trans athletes from competing in women’s sports and girls on February 5, in a ceremony in the White House.

But even with the executive order and a total of 27 states that have their own laws to combat the inclusion of trans athletes, Gaines believes there is more work to do to combat the problem.
“Contrary to what some may think that given President Trump is back in the White House, the war against Woke has not yet won.” There is more work to do, but leaders such as President Trump and Governor Morrisey have raided the way, “Gaines said.
Several states, including California, Maine, Minnesota and Massachusetts, have followed that Trans athletes compete with women. The United States Senate could not recently approve the protection of women and girls in the Sports Law after the Democratic minority blocked the bill through the filibuster.

“It’s never what I was doing,” Gaines told Pak Gazette Digital in an exclusive interview.
“But now, of course, with this problem and more, I would say that the whole agenda of America first. I am so passionate, I care a lot, and I love it, so we will see. It is definitely not something that I would rule out. I do not think I am so crazy, because I do I think I must be a little crazy clinically for voluntarily.
