The Trump administration has ruled that the University of Pennsylvania breached federal civil rights laws by permitting transgender athletes to compete in women's sports, thus violating Title IX. The administration accuses UPenn of depriving female athletes of equal opportunities and issued a 10-day ultimatum to resolve the issues or face possible enforcement proceedings. Proposed requirements for UPenn include restoring records of female athletes and issuing apologies. This decision reflects the administration's stance on transgender participation in sports and dedication to enforcing Title IX protections.
The Trump administration has determined that the University of Pennsylvania violated federal civil rights laws by allowing transgender athletes to compete in women's sports.
