一句话看懂
A federal judge dismissed the Trump administration's lawsuit against California's trans-inclusive school sports policy. The ruling blocks the DoJ from forcing the state to ban trans girls from girls' teams.
背景
California has allowed transgender girls to play on girls' school sports teams since 2013, a policy that has been largely uncontroversial until recent years. In July 2025, the Trump administration sued the state, arguing the policy violated Title IX, a federal law prohibiting sex discrimination in schools. The lawsuit targeted five trans girls and sought to force California to ban them from girls' teams as a condition of federal funding. The dismissal is a significant victory for LGBTQ+ rights advocates and a setback for the administration's efforts to restrict trans participation in sports.
