Maine is facing a loss of federal school funding for allowing biological males to compete in women’s sports The US government has sued the state of Maine over its refusal to comply with President Donald Trump’s executive order from February banning biological male transgender athletes from competing in girls’ and women’s sports. The order directs federal agencies to cut funding to institutions that do not comply. The lawsuit, filed by the Justice Department and announced on Wednesday by Attorney General Pam Bondi, accuses Maine of violating Title IX, the federal civil rights law that bars sex-based discrimination in educational institutions receiving federal funds. “The state of Maine is discriminating against women by failing to protect women in women’s sports,” Bondi told reporters.
