南卡罗来纳州民主党参议院候选人、儿科医生安妮·安德鲁斯发布视频，直面共和党围绕跨性别议题发起的竞选攻击。1安德鲁斯在视频中明确表态："我不支持生物学男性参加女性体育比赛，我不支持且从未为未成年人进行性别手术。"1
共和党的超级政治行动委员会此前投放广告，声称安德鲁斯"支持they/them代词"，并将跨性别人士妖魔化为对儿童的威胁。1最高法院在今年早些时候的裁决中维持了两个保守州的法律，禁止跨性别女性参加女性运动。1
民主党内对如何应对此类攻击存在分歧。1俄亥俄州国会议员玛西·卡普图尔发布广告宣称她"与共和党人一致投票反对学校中的跨性别意识形态"，这一做法遭到人权运动组织的批评，被评价为"不可接受"。1相比之下，俄亥俄州参议院候选人舍罗德·布朗因其对反跨性别攻击的巧妙应对而获得该组织的称赞。1
Anne Andrews, a pediatrician running for Senate in South Carolina as a Democrat, released a video addressing Republican attacks centered on transgender issues.1 In the video, Andrews explicitly stated her opposition to certain transgender policies, declaring: "I do not support biological males competing in female sports, and I do not support and have never supported gender surgery for minors."1
Republican super PACs have launched advertisements against Andrews, claiming she "supports they/them pronouns" and framing transgender people as a threat to children.1 The campaign reflects a broader Republican strategy to leverage transgender rights as a wedge issue in competitive races.1 This approach has prompted divisions within Democratic circles over how best to respond to such attacks, with some candidates adjusting their public positions on the matter.1
The political pressure comes as the Supreme Court earlier this year upheld laws in two conservative states that ban transgender women from participating in women's sports.1 Meanwhile, other Democratic candidates have adopted similar messaging—Ohio Representative Marcy Kaptur released an advertisement claiming she voted with Republicans against "transgender ideology in schools."1 However, the Human Rights Campaign criticized Kaptur's approach as "unacceptable," stating it is not a winning electoral strategy.1 The organization praised Ohio Senate candidate Sherrod Brown for what it described as a skillful response to anti-transgender attacks.1
