First on Fox: Friday, the United States Ministry of Civil Rights Education (OCR) referred the Maine Ministry of Education (MDOE) to the Ministry of Justice on Friday, while the State continues to allow trans athletes to compete in the sports of girls.
This is the second reference to the GM that state educational establishments were faced last month on the issue, after the Ministry of Health and Social Services referred Mdoe, the main association of Maine and the Greely High School on March 28.
Now the OCR has informed the deputy general prosecutor of Maine Sarah Forster of a second DOJ reference in a letter on Friday. The letter, obtained by PK Press Club Digital, declares that earlier Friday, the Maine Prosecutor’s Office General officially informed the OCR that he would not sign a resolution agreement to modify the eligibility policies between the sexes of the State to comply with title IX, so that the MJ’s reference must be made.
“, The OCR has determined that compliance cannot be guaranteed by informal or voluntary means,” said the letter. “The OCR is now referring to this case to the Ministry of Justice with a recommendation of appropriate procedures, to apply all the legally available remedies.”

The OCR also says that it initiates procedures to have additional funding in the suspended or frozen state.
“This letter also serves as an opinion to Mdoe that the OCR initiates administrative procedures to suspend, terminate, postpone the final approval and / or refuse to grant or pursue federal financial assistance to Mdoe,” said the letter.
Last Tuesday, the USDA announced a state funding freeze on the issue.
Maine The officials then brought a complaint against the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) on Monday following the agency’s decision to freeze state funding for its refusal to overthrow its participation policy of transgender athletes in schools.
PK Press Club Digital contacted the Maine Prosecutor General’s Office to comment on Friday’s reference.
The state has undergone immense federal pressure in recent months to protect female athletes from trans inclusion in the midst of several controversial incidents involving trans athletes and an ongoing quarrel between President Donald Trump and the Governor of Maine Janet Mills.

After Trump has signed an executive decree to ban the transminine sports and girls athletes on February 5, Maine was one of the many states that openly challenged the order. The state gap on trans inclusion was then highlighted when the representative of the state of Maine, Laurel Libby, published an article on social networks which identified a Trans athlete who won a pole jump for girls for Greely High School this month.
The position caused a national awareness, in particular of Trump himself, who promised to cut the financing of the State if he continued to allow men in the sports of girls at a meeting of the GOP governors on February 20. The next day, the Mills’ office published a statement threatening a legal action against Trump later in a verbal spat with Millis above the issue at a Bipartisan meeting of governors later that day.
Only a few hours after that, the United States Ministry of Education announced its initial state investigation for the potential violations of the title IX.
Meanwhile, Libby was censored for her article on social networks on the premise that she identified a minor by her name and her photo. However, Libby has since filed a complaint for censorship to be canceled, arguing that the Trans athlete had already been identified by other media before his post. The trial was tried before a district court of Rhode Island.
In addition to the incident involving the pole vaulter to Greely High School, other cases had an impact on several girls through the state that had to compete with and share locker room with organic men.
Maine Teen Cassidy Carlisle previously told PK Press Club Digital on the way she was to share a locker room with a trans student at college, then had to compete with another trans northern ski athlete last year.
“The defeat that comes with this at that time is heartbreaking,” said Carlisle. “I’m just in shock in a way. I didn’t believe it. … I didn’t think it happened to me.”
A survey on The American Parents Coalition noted that out of approximately 600 registered voters from Maine, 63% said that the participation of school sports should be based on organic sex, and 66% have agreed that it was “just to restrict the sports of women to organic women”.
The survey also revealed that 60% of residents would support a voting measure limiting participation In Sports for women and girls at Biological women. This included 64% of the self -employed and 66% of parents with children under the age of 18.
