""Keeping men out of women's prisons is not only common sense - it's a matter of safety and constitutional rights," Bondi said in a statement. "The Trump Administration will not stand by if governors are facilitating the abuse of biological women under the guise of inclusion.""
""The department will not allow women incarcerated in jails or prisons to be subject to unconstitutional risks of harm from male inmates," said Assistant U.S. Attorney General."
The Trump Administration's Justice Department announced an investigation into transgender women inmates in women's prisons in California and Maine. This move aligns with a campaign theme for the upcoming elections. Attorney General Pam Bondi emphasized the importance of keeping biological men out of women's prisons for safety and constitutional rights. The investigation targets specific facilities in California and Maine, where policies allow housing based on gender identity. Critics, including Governor Janet Mills, have labeled the investigation as politically motivated, while the DOJ insists on protecting incarcerated women's safety.
