In a town hall meeting, a mother questioned Chellie’s vote against the Women’s Fairness in Sports Act, expressing concern about Title IX protections for her daughters. Pingree defended her stance, citing concerns about male athletes competing in women’s sports, but acknowledged the complexity of the issue. Matt Gagnon criticized Chellie Pingree’s response as evasive and highlighted Janet Mills’ defense on MSNBC, where she accused the President of making arbitrary decisions and threatened Social Security. Gagnon refuted Mills’ claims, arguing that her policy on transgender athletes violates federal law and that the Maine Human Rights Act does not mandate specific competition rules. He accused Mills of misrepresenting the law for political gain.

Josh Filler works with law enforcement and other public safety agencies across the country on homeland security and emergency preparedness issues.
