A middle school in San Diego has been thrown into local controversy due to a trans -gender student using the girls’ dressing room.
The San Diego County Board of Supervisors voted on Tuesday against a measure to implement the protection of women and girls in the Sports Act, which would prevent trans -athletes from competing in girls ‘sports or entering girls’ dressing room.
Vice President of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors Jim Desmond made the proposal at a San Diego Board of Supervisors Meeting Tuesday. However, the measure did not receive any votes from other supervisors outside Desmond.
“People came in at the meeting with their minds that already consisted of the question,” Desmond told Pakinomist Digital.
“The rest were mothers who just didn’t think it was fair or safe for men to play in girls or women’s safe. So the room was probably 60-40 in favor of letting them play but i think it’s just turnout of who was able to take the day free and come down here.

Tuesday’s meeting contained several arguments from concerned parents who expressed their concern that their daughters were forced to share closet space with biological men.
The middle school, where this controversy takes place, San Elijo Middle School, provided a statement to Pakinomist Digital, which credited his activation of the transking student to access the girls’ dressing room for the school’s obligation to follow the state legislation.
“Public school districts in California are governed by and must act in accordance with California’s State Act and California’s educational code,” says San Elijo Middle School’s statement.
“As a public school district of California, we will continue to follow state legislation and guidance from California’s education department to ensure that all students are treated with dignity, respect and justice. Our district remains obliged to maintain policies that support all students in accordance With state protections and the law of discrimination.
President Donald Trump signed “No Men Men In Women’s Sports” executive order last Wednesday, which cuts federal funding to any educational institution that allows biological men to compete with girls and women.
However, several states, including California, have insisted that they will not comply with Trump’s order. According to USA FactsCalifornia’s public schools receive approx. $ 16.8 billion a year, which is 13.9% or one in every seven dollars public school financing, which is well above the national average.
California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) said it will continue to follow the state’s law that allows athletes to participate as the gender they identify as, a spokesman Pakinomist Digital told.
“CIF gives students the opportunity to belong, connect and compete in educational -based experiences in accordance with California’s legislation [Education Code section 221.5. (f)] Which allows students to participate in school programs and activities, including athletic teams and competitions that are in accordance with the student’s gender identity, regardless of gender listed on the student’s posts, “says a CIF declaration.
Desmond said many of his local voters reached out to him who expressed concern and unbelievers over the state’s handling of the situation.
“They think it’s crazy and I’ve heard questions about” Is it even legal? “Said Desmond.
For Desmond, as a Republican, he sees the democratic rejection of complying with Trump’s order as a question that will continue to hurt support for the party in his state.
“These people didn’t get the message in the last choice and they just dig the hole deeper. They double down and dig their heels into the ground, ‘yes, we’re right,'” Desmond said, adding what he thinks and hopes Trans athlete -The debate will strengthen Republican support in California.

And that’s all we’re trying to do we try not to discriminate , if you want to identify as another [gender]Fine, go for what you feel right, but where does your rights end and someone else’s beginning? You can’t get a boy to get 30 girls to leave and go in a place other, that’s not right we need a better system. ”
