California plans to continue allowing trans athletes to compete in girls' sports despite Trump executive order

Fox News legal editor Kerri Urbahn joins 'America Reports' to discuss a DOJ memo stating FBI agents who 'followed orders' won't be fired and President Donald Trump signing an executive order banning men from competing in women's sports.

The State of California and its public school athletics association has indicated it will not fall in line with President Donald Trump's latest executive order to keep trans athletes out of girls' and women's sports. 

The California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) said it will continue to follow the state's law that allows athletes to participate as whichever gender they identify as, according to The San Francisco Chronicle. 

California Family Council Outreach Director Sophia Lorey told Fox News Digital that her state's intent to defy Trump's executive order has made her feel "disgusted." 

"I am disgusted that CIF is disregarding yesterday's executive order and instead doubling down on policies that are not only unfair, but dangerous for young women across California. By prioritizing their idol of transgender ideology over the safety and rights of female athletes, they are knowingly exposing high school girls to unsafe competition and stripping them of opportunities guaranteed for them under Title IX," Lorey told Fox News Digital.

"One day, the CIF board will look back and realize they chose to be on the wrong side of history. They will have to answer for why they sacrificed the safety, fairness, and dignity of young girls to bow to an ideological agenda. But the rest of us will not stand by while female athletes are illegally prevented from competing fairly in their own sports."
