US threatens California with legal action over transgender sports law

CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – The Trump administration claims California's policy allowing transgender girls in female sports violates Title IX and threatens legal action to enforce federal anti-discrimination laws.

  • On July 7, U.S. Education Secretary Linda McMahon warned California to rescind trans athlete prizes within 10 days or face legal action, escalating a federal-state confrontation.
  • Following the OCR’s June 25 letter, the U.S. Department of Education found California violated Title IX by permitting biological males in girls' sports and rejected the federal resolution within 10 days.
  • California’s governor’s office dismissed the federal agreement as 'a political document,' while McMahon praised it as 'a great victory for women and girls,' highlighting polarized official reactions.
  • California's education agencies refused to sign a pledge to ban transgender athletes, risking a high-profile legal showdown with the federal government.
  • More broadly, similar legal battles are unfolding in Minnesota, Maine, and Washington as the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to hear related cases this week.
