President-elect Donald Trump and his allies have made clear — including through stated policy positions and chosen campaign surrogates — that his administration intends to bar trans athletes from playing on school sports teams that match their gender identity. “The president bans it,” Trump said at a Fox News event in Georgia last month. “You […] Read more ›
