It is the latest escalation of the conflict between the Republican president and the Democratic Governor of Mainea Janet Mills, which has already included threatening with the abolition of financing the education system of that country.
“The Ministry of Justice will not observe when women are discriminated against in sports,” said the American Minister of Justice Pam Bondi. “Here it is the personal security of these young women,” Index reported.
Governor Janet Mills revered that “this topic was never about school sports or the protection of women and girls”, but about imposing the federal will. She accused the administration for illegal action and political retaliation.
The controversial legal basis is the Title IX, the American Law on Civil Rights, which prohibits sexual discrimination in education.
In February, Trump signed the Executive Regulation by which the law is interpreted to prohibit trans and girls competition in women’s sports, which caused wave of criticism and legal transporters.
At the press conference, Bondi announced that the administration considers the possibility of retroactive abolition of funds that Maine received, as well as deleting the Transport Sports Sports Titles.
The lawsuit comes only a few days after the Trump administration tried to suspend all the federal funds for public schools in Maine, including the program of school meals, which is interpreted in response to the public conflict of Trump and Mills during the Governor’s 21. February.
Then Trump threatened the abolition of funding if the Maine did not align with the Regulation. Mills returned, “See you in court.”
On Wednesday, the Federal Government for almost two months in the campaign of political revenge, aiming, as she said, “hungry school children, fishermen, older citizens, parents and many Mainea residents.”
The Mills Governor stated that only two transologies are currently participating in the school sport in the entire school system.
According to the UCLA Williams Institute, less than 1 percent of people over 13 in the US identified as transgender.
The lawsuit against the Mainea is part of the wider campaign of the Trump Administration to annul the policy towards the transitions implemented by the previous Biden administration.
After the Executive Regulation in February, the NCAA, the U.S. Root Body in the United States, also published a ban on the transactions in the women’s categories.
On the same day, in the UK, the Supreme Court ruled that the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex, ie that man is a man or woman. At the same time, the Court pointed out that the trans people still have legal protection against discrimination.
