The Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison faces a lawsuit to allow Trans athletes to compete in girls’ sports while the State faces a continuous controversy that involves a trans launcher who dominated the softball season.
“Minnesota is failing in its female athletes. The State is putting the rights of men ahead of women, telling girls that their hard work may never be enough to win and that they do not deserve equity and security,” Fox Digital told Fox Digital.
“By sacrificing protection for female athletes, Minnesota does not offer girls the same treatment and opportunity, violating the provisions of title IX. Our client, the United Female Athletes, are right by defending their members challenging the discriminatory policy of the State and advocating for true equality in sports.”

The defendants are Ellison, the executive director of the Secondary School League of the State of Minnesota, Erich Martens, the commissioner of the Department of Human Rights of Minnesota, Rebecca Lucero and the Minnesota Education Commissioner, Willie Jett.
Ellison’s office has published a statement that responds to the lawsuit.
“In addition to exercising and the fun of the competition, playing sports comes with so many benefits for young people. Building friendships that can last a lifetime, learn to work as part of a team and feel that you belong,” Ellison said.
“I think it is wrong with a group of students, who already face higher levels of harassment and harassment, and tell these children that they cannot be in the team who they are. I will continue to defend the rights of all students to practice sports with their friends and classmates.”
The reports of the Softball launcher Trans winning 14 consecutive games in the playoffs and winning honors throughout the state of the first team shook the state in recent weeks.

The former Vikings player, Jack Brewer, even spoke about the controversy that took out the sports scene from his state’s high school.
“In any sport, especially something like softball, people can seriously hurt. A man hits the strongest ball. A man throws the ball faster. Therefore, the idea of allowing men to compete in women’s softball, especially now, when that sport has grown in visibility and opportunities, it is crazy,” Brewer told Pak Gazette Digital.
Meanwhile, Ellison is demanding President Donald Trump and the Department of Justice to ensure that transgender athletes can continue to participate in girls’ sports in the state.
After Trump signed the executive order to “keep men out of women’s sports,” the Minnesota state high school league He announced it It would challenge federal law by allowing transgender athletes to continue playing in women’s sports.
Ellison later said at a press conference on April 22 that he received a notice from the Department of Justice that threatened legal action if the State did not follow the executive order, so the AG decided to sue first.
“I will not sit down waiting that the Trump administration demands Minnesota. Today, Minnesota is already demanding his administration because we will not participate in this shameful harassment,” Ellison said. “We will not let a small group of vulnerable children who only try to be healthy and live their lives will be demonized.”
The White House has responded to demand, condemning Ellison for taking legal measures to allow trans inclusion.
“Why would an adult man demand the Trump administration to allow other biological men to participate in women’s sports? This is spooky and anti-woman,” said White House spokesman Harrison Fields, Pak Gazette Digital.
The Minnesota State Legislature failed to approve the “Girls’s Priest Sports Law” in early March, which would have declared that “only students can participate in an athletic team or primary or secondary level sport that an educational institution has restricted to women and girls.”
