  Minnesota's governing body for high school sports says it will follow state law — not President Donald Trump's executive order — and continue to allow transgender athletes to compete in prep athletics.

The article from MSN discusses the ongoing debate over transgender participation in high school sports, focusing on the conflict between following former President Donald Trump's executive order and state laws. Trump's order, which was intended to protect women's sports by barring transgender girls from competing against biological females, has been challenged in court and its enforcement remains uncertain. Meanwhile, various states have passed their own laws, some aligning with Trump's stance by restricting transgender athletes, while others have more inclusive policies. This discrepancy creates a complex situation for high school sports administrators who must navigate between federal guidance, state legislation, and potential legal challenges. The article highlights the tension between ensuring fairness in sports and protecting the rights of transgender students, with decisions on participation often hinging on interpretations of Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in educational programs.
