The controversy has also prompted a Title IX investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice into California's law on transgender athletes in school sports.

A transgender high school track athlete from California won the state championship in the girls' 1,600-meter run, sparking controversy and threats from former President Donald Trump, who vowed to ban transgender athletes from women's sports if re-elected. The athlete, Athena Ryan, finished second in the 1,600-meter race and helped her team, the Sonoma Academy, win the state title. Trump's campaign criticized the situation, claiming it was unfair to female athletes and promised to issue an executive order to prevent such occurrences if he wins the 2024 presidential election. The controversy has reignited debates over transgender participation in sports, with critics arguing it disadvantages cisgender female athletes, while supporters emphasize the importance of inclusivity and fairness for all athletes.
