Attorney General Pam Bondi said Wednesday the Department of Justice is suing Maine, alleging Title IX violations, because the state is challenging a presidential executive order on trans athletes in women's sports.

Donald Trump, the president, wasted little time delivering on his promise to address a topic that seemed to resonate across party lines. Trump issued an executive order on the day his second term began that called for “restoring biological truth to the federal government” and signed another on Wednesday titled “ Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports. ”

Trump’s return to the White House has brought a new era of aggressive investigations of entities that flout the president's orders.
