The representative Elise Stefanik is asking for a federal investigation or a school district of the north of the state for its “direct violation” or the executive order of President Trump that prohibits Trans athletes competing in girls sports.
The Board of Education of the City of Saratoga Springs, which is in the district of the congressman of the Republican Party of New York, approved a resolution of March 27 of “affirming our support to each student” that transgender students have the “right to use the facilities and participate.”
The measure led Stefanik to fierce a letter on Monday to the Secretary of Education of the United States, Linda McMahon, urged her to investigate the district.
Stefanik said that the measure of the Bola violates the executive order of Trump 4201, “keep men out of women’s sports”, as well as the title IX of the Federal Education Law that prohibits discrimination based on sex in schools and programs that receive federal funds.
The school district could lose some of its $ 3 million in federal funds if the United States Department of Education concludes that it is violating Federal Law and Trump order.
“Allowing biological males in sports and girls’ locker room is in direct violation of the executive order of Title IX and President Trump,” Stefanik said in his letter to McMahon, whose copy was obtained by the position.
“Our daughters should not be forced to compete against biological men in competitive sports or share a costume with biological men,” said the congresswoman.
He called to the transgender policy of the Board of Education of Saratoga as a “shameless violation” of the Federal Law and the Trump order and requested that McMahon make the civil rights office of the Department of Education open a formal wind to hold it and do it. Protect.
“I join President Trump in his commitment to protect the girls and daughter of our nation,” Stefanik wrote. “This left end awakened the ideology does not take place in our communities.”

Stefanik and the president of the Supervision Committee of the House of Representatives, James Eat (R-Kentuucky) pointed out the rejection of the demands of April 14 by Harvard that included: establishing a more contracting based on merit; Completion of diversity, equity and inclusion programs; Reform of “programs with atrocious records of anti -Semitism and other bias”, and intensifying the detection of admissions of international applicants to “avoid admitting hostile students to US values”, including those “that support terrorism.”
