Absent a preliminary injunction, the states argue, the female athletes are \u201cstripped of Title IX\u2019s protections by forcing them to compete against biological men.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Asked about the brief, Minnesota Attorney General\u2019s Office spokesperson Brian Evans in a statement called the accusations \u201cmerely a repetition of the far-right\u2019s typical scaremongering and scapegoating of kids dressed up as an amicus brief.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a shame for residents of these 19 states that their attorneys general are bullying vulnerable kids to score cheap political points, rather than helping people who need it,\u201d Evans said, adding to his statement that the court filing will have no impact on the lawsuit and \u201cdoes not matter.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
The filing by Iowa\u2019s attorney general was signed by attorneys general from Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah and Wyoming. All of the states, with the exception of Kansas, have Republican governors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
The brief also comes on the heels of the Trump administration\u2019s finding that Minnesota is in violation of Title IX over the MSHSL policy, to which federal officials ordered the state to make changes in 10 days. The deadline passed last week with no clear repercussions \u2014 though the state told the administration in a letter criticizing the investigation<\/a> that it would not offer a \u201csubstantive response\u201d to their demand, due to a lack of clarity and the federal government\u2019s shutdown. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \u201cAs you know,\u201d Minnesota Solicitor General Liz Kramer wrote, \u201cif the federal government intends to follow the law, it would need to follow an extensive, multi-step administrative process before any federal funding to Minnesota education programs or activities could ever be terminated.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Absent a preliminary injunction, the states argue, the female athletes are \u201cstripped of Title IX\u2019s protections by forcing them to compete against biological men.\u201d Asked about the brief, Minnesota Attorney General\u2019s Office spokesperson Brian Evans in a statement called the accusations \u201cmerely a repetition of the far-right\u2019s typical scaremongering and scapegoating of kids dressed up … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6566,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Republican-attorneys-general-unite-against-Minnesota-policy-on-transgender-athletes.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6565"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6565\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6567,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6565\/revisions\/6567"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6566"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
