California’s state law votes on a bill that would ban biological men from girls’ sports in the state, as the state is currently one of the country’s largest hotbeds for controversial events involving trans athletes.
The State High School Sports Association, California Interscholastic Federation, is currently under federal investigation for potential violations of title IX, after several controversial events involving trans athletes took place in the last year.
The Gavin Gavin reign recently said in an episode of his podcast that he believes that trans -athletes competing in girls’ sports are “deeply unreasonable,” but defended policies that enable it for the sake of sensitivity to the transperson’s feelings.
On Thursday, Education Secretary Linda McMahon sent a formal warning to Newsom and the rest of the state, suggesting that federal funding can be cut down to the state if it continues to enable trans -cluttering in girls’ sports.

California’s assembly woman Kate Sanchez, who suggested that the state proposal be addressed by the issue, AB 89, the Democrats warned of the potential consequences if they block this bill, both for the residents of the state and to their party’s reputation.
“They have to be very thoughtful because President Trump is obviously a man with his words, so losing this funding is really what they want to do?” Asked Sanchez. “This is a fight that I am not sure that the Newsom administration really wants to take on, and if they do, President Trump has shown that he is really strong.”
Sanchez believes the state cannot afford to risk any federal funding over a question affecting such a small population.
“There are so many school districts that would be in absolute distress. I really hope it doesn’t come to that point. I hope we can come to a decision and find common reason for this because we really have to get back to basics. I grew up in California. We are hurting. There are so many other problems, pocketbook questions that we need to be focused on.”
In California, a law called AB 1266 Has been in effect since 2014, giving California’s students at Scholastic and Collegiate levels the right to “participate in sex-divorced school programs and activities, including athletic teams and competitions, and use facilities that comply with his or her gender identity, regardless of gender listed on student items.”
The law and the subsequent, enabling Trans athletes to compete with girls and women in the state have resulted in more controversy over the issue in the last year alone.

In Riverside, California, two girls on the cross -country team at Martin Luther King High School have a lawsuit against their school and California’s court lawyer Rob Bonta over A situation involving a trans athlete on the team. The trial claims that the trans-athlete took a varsity place from a female runner and that when the girls had “Save Girls Sports” T-shirts in protest, school administrators compared them with swastikas.
The father of a girl who previously lost her varsity -site to the trans -athlete told Pakinomist Digital that his daughter and other girls at school were told “Transgders have more rights than cisgender[s]“By school administrators as they protested the athlete’s participation.
The nearby Jurupa Unified School District has been dealing with a recent national controversy involving a Trans -Rail and Field Atlete at the Jurupa Valley High School (Juvhs), who has dominated female opponents by dizzying margins in triple jump this season.

Back in the fall, Stone Ridge Christian High School’s Girls Volleyball team was planning to meet San Francisco Waldorf in the Northern California Division 6 tournament, but they lost in a message just before the battle for the presence of a trans athlete on the team.
Sanchez said she has spoken to dozens of voters in her state who identify herself as Democrats, but the question has become so overwhelming that it pushes these voters away from the party. Sanchez added that it is becoming more common among the state’s Latin American voters.

“Our Latin American communities, so many of them in the state have called our office and asked ‘please keep pushing this bill,'” Sanchez said.
“The Latin American community is very much a family -oriented, hardworking, thoughtful community that just wants to allow for their family, and for their children and grandchildren. So we’ve got a lot of conversations up and down in the state about those who say ‘what they’re going on? This isn’t what I want. Of course, I want our girls who are protected, so do them in front of a man.”
Sanchez’s Bill is one of two bills that block trans athletes from competing in girls’ sports that will be voted on Tuesday. Another bill that needs to be addressed the same question, AB 844, also gets a vote.
