California may soon find itself facing down a Department of Justice (DOJ) lawsuit after refusing to keep gender-confused men from dominating girls’ sports.
The Department of Education gave the California Department of Education and the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) until Monday to comply with federal law and prohibit males from competing against females in sports. However, both the CIF and the state Dept. of Education refused to comply with the law.
“California has just REJECTED our resolution agreement to follow federal law and keep men out of women’s sports,” Education Secretary Linda McMahon wrote on X. “Turns out Gov. Newsom’s acknowledgment that ‘it’s an issue of fairness’ was empty political grandstanding.”
She then tagged Newsom and wrote, “you’ll be hearing from [Attorney General] Pam Bondi.”
McMahon previously warned the state about potential consequences for noncompliance.
“The Trump Administration will relentlessly enforce Title IX protections for women and girls, and our findings today make clear that California has failed to adhere to its obligations under federal law,” McMahon stated in a June 25 news release, announcing the offer for resolution after finding California was in violation of the law. “The state must swiftly come into compliance with Title IX or face the consequences that follow.”
The resolution would have also required California to rescind “individual records, titles, and awards misappropriated by male athletes competing in female competitions” and issue an apology.
A database maintained by HeCheated.org lists nearly 400 instances of males competing against females in California since 2019 just in track and field. It includes numerous titles won by gender-confused male track athlete “AB Hernandez,” whom Turning Point USA CEO Charlie Kirk specifically asked Newsom about in a March interview.
