X community adds a context note to Glenn Ivey post: Rep. Glenn Ivey (D-MD) posted "Notice that women athletes didn't ask for the anti-trans bill pushed by House Republicans last week. It's just more legislation in search of a problem. What IS a problem is the high suicide rate among trans youth due to bigoted, exclusionary policies like this one." The post included a video of Ivey speaking on the House floor about his feelings on the subject. The X community added a note to the post that read: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know. Rep. Glenn Ivey's claim that women are not asking for men to stay out of women's sports is completely untrue. Riley, is one of many women, that has been asking for this for some time. nypost.com/2023/05/13/ril… foxnews.com/sports/riley-g… ohiocapitaljournal.com/2023/11/29/ril…" The label is part of X’s Community Notes system.
