Trump administration says California must bar trans girls from girls sports
ABC NewsWednesday, June 25, 2025 at 7:50:44 PM
The Trump administration is pushing California to reverse its current policies that let transgender girls participate in girls' sports teams matching their gender identity. Essentially, they're arguing that allowing trans girls to compete with cisgender girls is unfair and demanding the state take action.
Editor’s Note: This isn't just about sports—it's part of a larger national debate over transgender rights and equality. The administration's stance could embolden other states to restrict trans athletes, while advocates argue it’s another attempt to marginalize transgender youth. For California, which has been a leader in LGBTQ+ protections, this sets up a potential legal and political clash. It’s a story that goes beyond policy and cuts right to questions of fairness, identity, and who gets to decide.
