The California Department of Education refuses to recognize an alleged Title IX violation over transgender athletes and says it will not sign a resolution agreement with the U.S. Department of Education.
The CDE wrote to the U.S. Department of Education in an email on Monday, politely declining the offer to sign the Trump administration's Proposed Resolution Agreement.
“The California Department of Education received the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights’ June 25, 2025 Letter of Finding and Proposed Resolution Agreement in the above referenced OCR-matter,” the CDE email stated. “The CDE respectfully disagrees with OCR’s analysis, and it will not sign the Proposed Resolution Agreement.”
