The feds say the state discriminates against women when it permits men to compete in women’s sports.

The Department of Justice announced that it will sue the state of California for alleged violations to Title IX, with the aim of keeping men out of women’s sports.
“Title IX was enacted over half a century ago to protect women and girls from discrimination. The Justice Department will not stand for policies that deprive girls of their hard-earned athletic trophies and ignore their safety on the field and in private spaces,” Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon said in a statement. “Young women should not have to sacrifice their rights to compete for scholarships, opportunities, and awards on the altar of woke gender ideology.”
In a story published by The Daily Wire, California rejected on Monday the resolution agreement from the Trump administration to follow federal law and ban transgender-identifying males from competing athletically with females.
Refusing to sign the resolution agreement, the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) aligned itself with the California Department of Education (CDE). The resolution was proposed on June 25, when the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) announced the conclusion of its Title IX investigations into the state for allegations of discrimination against women and girls on the basis of sex.
According to the Daily Wire, federal officials found that California was in clear violation of Title IX. “As a result of the noncompliance finding, OCR has issued a proposed Resolution Agreement to CDE and CIF to resolve their Title IX violations,” the U.S. Department of Education said in a press release issued last month. “OCR has offered both entities an opportunity to voluntarily agree to change these unlawful practices within 10 days or risk imminent enforcement action, including referral to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) for proceedings.
