Trump Admin Cracks Down on Trans Athlete Participation in Girls' Sports Nationwide

The Trump administration has taken action against the state of Minnesota over its policy allowing biological males to compete in girls' sports, following the win of a transgender softball player who pitched for her school's team and led them to a state title. The move marks a significant escalation in the administration's efforts to challenge the policies of states that have relaxed restrictions on male participation in female sports. Minnesota is one of several states targeted by the administration over its stance, which is seen as inconsistent with the federal guidelines set under Title IX. The investigation into the state's policy is expected to focus on whether it complies with the requirements outlined in the law.
