The Trump administration filed suit against California on July 9, alleging that it violated Title IX of the Civil Rights Act by allowing boys to compete in girls’ athletics and use female locker rooms.

“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 Dhillon said in a statement.
