California’s conflict over Trans athletes is warming this summer.
The meeting of the Executive Committee of the Interscolastic Federation of California (CIF) was received by a strip of strong protesters on Friday.
The growing contingency of “Save Girls Sports” of the State, led by the California Family Council, appeared outside the meeting with t -shirts, signs and even a podium for a press conference.

Multiple athletes, parents and state education officials spoke against the CIF and Governor Gavin Newsom for the policies that have allowed Trans athletes to compete in girls’ sports, which caused several controversies in the state only during the past year.
The California Family Council and the director of Disclosure, Sophia Lorey, also had a request in the event, which has at least 20,074 Californian firms urging the CIF and Newsom to change the gender eligibility policies of the State.
The students of Martin Luther King High School Taylor Starling and Kaitlyn Slavin, who filed a lawsuit against the Unified School District of Riverside for a situation that involves a trans student in his school, the speakers of the athletes headed.
Starling shared his story of losing his university place in the field team through the Trans athlete, while he had his “Save Girls Sports” shirts compared to the swastika.

“This is not fair, girls like me are told to feel, smile and shut up, and give up what we work so hard, and now we are the ones that are being excluded from our own teams,” Starling said.
Slavin spoke in support of his Starling teammate.
“An example of this negative domino effect is that Taylor’s mental health is now affected, which leads to his family to be affected,” said Slavin. “With Taylor as one of my best friends, I am now upset but also confused about how this is allowed. Now my family is being affected, trying to be there for me, but I also have to step forward and do its share to make a change.”
California filed a lawsuit against the Department of Justice earlier this month After the officials demanded That the public secondary schools of the State confirm that they will prohibit transgender athletes in girls’ sports.
The State said in its demand that the Department of Justice “had no right to make such a demand” and cited “no authority that allows them to issue or enforce the letter of certification” to each local education agency.
California defended the laws that have been questioned, which allow athletes to participate in sports “consisting of” their gender identity and do not violate the equal protection clause of the decimocuarta amendment.
The Department of Justice initially announced an investigation into the CIF for its state policies at the end of May, before the State Women’s Athletics Championship that had the Trans Hernández athlete competing in several events in the women’s category.
The announcement of the Department of Justice of that investigation cited the demand for Starling and Slavin.
