Attorney General William Barr has filed a statement of interest on behalf of the Justice Department in support of the plaintiffs.
Barr is taking an interesting approach in explaining the government’s position. The Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference has been citing Title IX as the rationale for their policy of allowing transgender students to dominate the girls’ track and field events in that state, defining the transgender athletes as “girls” without questioning the underlying reality. Barr has countered by also citing Title IX, saying that CIAC “deprives those women of the single-sex athletic competitions that are one of the marquee accomplishments of Title IX.”
In what probably passes for a shocking level of respect for actual science in 2020, the Justice Department filing goes on to say that under CIAC’s interpretation “schools may not account for the real physiological differences between men and women.”
Keep in mind that all of this legal activity was spurred by Connecticut’s decision to allow Terry Miller and Andraya Yearwood, two transgender sprinters, to compete in the girls’ division even if they’ve never taken any hormones or undergone other medical procedures to reduce their inherent advantages as males. They aren’t turning in any times that would land them at the top of the boys’ division, but they’ve been completely smoking the girls, setting multiple state records.

Freaks.
The bureaucrats and the media don’t define the words they use
By “transgender,” do they mean:
1. a male who has been surgically “changed” from male to female, or
2. a male who mentally “identifies” as female, but hasn’t had any surgery?
Democrats deny science.
I know wonder if a trans-Atlantic voyage mean a trip across the Pacific.
I'm sure the Supreme Court progressives will argue that protecting the transgender fruits was exactly Congress' intent when it passed Title IX legislation.
3. a confused lunatic
I read the brief and found nothing wrong with it.
Miller and Yearwood ought to be laughed out of the hood. They apparently were not even average among the boys, but smoked the girls event. Wow. Now that is a trophy to place in the case. How will they ever be able to show those medals to their grans with pride instead of shame.
MOST EXCELLENT OBSERVATION!!!
You might want to dial up your sarcasm detector a bit.
“Jumps into the trans athlete question”
What’s the question?
’ ...the Justice Department filing goes on to say that under CIAC’s interpretation “schools may not account for the real physiological differences between men and women.”
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Are lawyers capable of speaking english?
Probably both...
Title IX does not include gender “identity”. We know this because it never applied in the intervening years AND because Al Franken tried to amend it to include gender identity and homosexuals in general.
I don’t care how many hormones they take or what surgeries they have, there are innate differences between the two sexes that cannot be changed, such as skeletal structure, musculature, and how the muscles work. If Alice could step out of Wonderland, she would see she had entered a more bizarre world than the one she left.
You do realize that the left are the folks of "Science"?
They aren't women, and people who say they are women need to be hit in the mouth, Again and again until they stop repeating that lie.
Tired of this blatant lying.
That they think they can pretend to be "female" is shame. This is why these f@ggots who wear dresses kill themselves at a rate of 40%.
They are mental cases, and "shame" is the least of their worries.
