The Spin
Republican narrative
This enforcement action protects women's sports from unfair competition. California knowingly violated federal civil rights law by allowing biological males to steal awards and records from female athletes. The state must restore dignity to women's athletics by following Title IX requirements that ensure fair competition based on biological sex.
Democratic narrative
The Trump administration's discriminatory policy lacks legal standing and would put an undue burden on the state to verify the gender of every competing athlete. Newsom is taking action to protect the few transgender athletes in the state from the president's cruel policies. The DOE should focus more on avoiding harmful budget cuts.
