Trump administration sues California over transgender athletes in schools
CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, JUL 10 – The lawsuit alleges California’s transgender athlete policies violate Title IX and risk losing up to $44 billion in federal education funding, the Justice Department said.
- On July 9, 2025, the Justice Department, under the Trump administration, filed a lawsuit against California’s education authorities, challenging the state’s policy that permits transgender girls to participate in female school sports.
- The lawsuit followed a federal Education Department investigation earlier this year that concluded California violated Title IX and refused to adopt required policy changes within a given deadline.
- The complaint argues these policies disregard biological sex differences, causing girls to lose awards and scholarship opportunities while raising concerns about fairness and safety.
- Attorney General Pam Bondi affirmed that the Department of Justice remains committed to ensuring fair opportunities for female athletes in sports, highlighting the significance of the case.
- This lawsuit is part of a wider national initiative by the Trump administration, which has pursued similar legal actions and warned states that they may lose federal financial support if they maintain comparable policies.

Back at home, he belongs to a party that has either convinced itself that the trans issue really is ride-or-die issue and a hill they are willing to die on — or they are convinced enough of their fellow leftists believe it that t…
