Three female U.S. Masters Swimming (USMS) athletes have spoken out against the organization for asking for help with public relations amid a scandal involving a biological male trans competitor swimming against females.
USMS, a competitive swimming membership organization with over 60,000 adult swimmers, sent an email to its athletes Tuesday seeking help defending its public image after Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton launched a lawsuit against the organization.
Paxton's lawsuit stems from an incident in San Antonio at the end of April, when a trans athlete won five women's events.
