A new survey from Gallup found 62% of Americans believe trans athletes should not be allowed to play in accordance with their gender identity, following a wave of bills across the US which seek to limit trans participation in sports.
The data, gathered from the 1,016 respondents of Gallup’s annual Values and Beliefs survey, found only 10% of Republican voters believed trans athletes should be able to play in the category which aligns with their gender identity, compared to 55% of Democrats.Furthermore, 66% said they supported trans people serving in the military, compared to 71% when the same survey was conducted in 2019.
