The Illinois High School Association (IHSA) says it will continue to ignore a federal directive barring the participation of biological male athletes in high school girls’ sports. Previously, the State of Maine announced it would not comply with the directive, issued as an Executive Order by President Donald J. Trump in February, and now faces a federal lawsuit filed by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).
ISHA’s president, Dan Tully, claims that state law preempts the federal restriction and requires Illinois high schools to accommodate so-called transgender athletes, who are biological males, by allowing their participation in girls’ sporting events. “The Illinois Human Rights Act requires that transgender athletes be permitted to participate in events and programs aligning with the gender they identify,” Tully states in a letter to Illinois Republican lawmakers. He argues that the ISHA, “simply desires to comply with the law and takes no position as to which of the foregoing is correct or whether there can be alignment between claimed federal and state law.”

Somebody needs to kick Bondi and wake her up...
Lol.
“ISHA’s president, Dan Tully, claims that state law preempts the federal restriction”
lol Not another cent in federal funding. Not one more penny.
What has she done for four months, besides Fox TV?
If I can find an answer to your question I will gladly post it.
Lol.
Encourage the female athletes to seek legal remedy in federal court.
WTF is wrong with these people!!??
How do they get elected into positions of power!!??

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Public schools have way outlived their usefulness. Kid's literacy rates are so abysmal, ANYTHING would produce better results.
I suspect that far, far more than just withholding funding will ultimately prove necessary.
This particular evil isn’t about money.
“ISHA’s president, Dan Tully, claims that state law preempts the federal restriction and requires Illinois high schools to accommodate so-called transgender athletes..”
Someone didn’t pay attention in Civics class.

Hmmm...
Is she still working in DC?
Maybe someone needs to hire a private eye to locate her and bring her back to DC...
The Illinois State Legislature need to change the Illinois Human Rights Act to stop these men acting like women so they can participate in women’s sports programs and watch girls undress and shower in the dressing rooms. It is obvious that what they are doing is a sexual fetish.
It’s only a constitutional crisis when Trump appeals Obama judges. Never when Democrats defy the law. Title IX in this case.
No money for you!
I think this job is to big for old Bondi.
DOJ has already sued Illinois and the city of Chicago for impeding immigration deportations. If and when the times come for DOJ to sue for allowing boys to play in girl sports in Illinois, they will.
