The U.S. Department of Education said Thursday it was investigating multiple jurisdictions for possible violations of women's rights.
The agency reportedly has a “substantiated Title IX” violation with the Inter-Massachusetts Governance Association, which controls high school sports in the state.
Also under the microscope are San Jose State University and the University of Pennsylvania. These are suspected of violations under federal laws that prohibit gender discrimination. It has been reported.
The investigation comes after President Trump signs it Presidential Order To prevent men from competing in women's sports. The order calls for “enforcement action against educational institutions” when women are forced to participate in sports or athletic events with men or “undressed in front of men.” I did.
All three suspected offenders have fallen into the spotlight for the past year or two, with MIAA particularly distinguished in multiple national stories.
In November 2023, a male field hockey player from Swampscott High School scored a shot during a field hockey game in which he attacked a female opponent, resulting in a serious injury and hospitalisation.
In February 2024, a girls' high school basketball game between KIPP Academy Lin and Lowell's college charter school was put into the hands of a trans player after three players were benched due to injuries. It was later confiscated. The game ended at halftime.
It was then revealed in January 2025 that the Foxborough High School girls' basketball team won multiple championships in “secret weapons.”
Mary Ellen Siegler, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Family Institute, said he hopes the investigation will lead to rapid enforcement against the MIAA.
“For decades [the MIAA has] By allowing boys to play on women's sports teams, we undermine the safety and opportunity for female athletes,” she told Blaze News.
To avoid losing, San Jose State was on the wrong side of a massive move against women's sports men in 2024. Several NCAA volleyball players, including Brooks Slisser and Cearly Lei, spoke out against a male athlete named Blair Fleming, who is playing in San Jose.
Several teams were confiscated against SJSU, and Leely held a press conference with Nevada teammates to protest the unfair benefits of transgender athletes and schools.
At the same time, three former University of Pennsylvania swimmers have to file lawsuits for Upenn, Harvard, NCAA and Ivy League Councils and share the team locker room with Leah Thomas, a transgender NCAA swimmer. When raising issues with managers, the athlete said they were led to believe their concerns were rooted in “psychological issues.”
“One injury is too many.”
Carol Rose, executive director of ACLU in Massachusetts, said she was playing high school sports at Boston Globe without any issues with transgender students, “if not thousands, if not thousands.” , said the story is exaggerated.
This reiterated the sentiment of Senator Dick Durbin (d-ill.). I said“510,000 NCAA athletes. 10 or fewer trans NCAA athletes across the country. Focus on how to actually improve women's sports.”
On the contrary, MFI Siegler said, “One injury is too many. One stolen championship is too many. But even more importantly, by restoring the original purpose of Title IX, we Restoring the basic biological truths of the country may benefit us all.
