California board of education president opens up on defying Newsom to keep trans athletes out of girls sports

The Kern County Board of Education in California on Tuesday became the latest blue state board of education to pass a local resolution to keep biological males out of girls sports while its state law does the opposite. 

The state has been a hotbed of controversy involving trans athletes competing in women's high school and college sports over the last year and a top target by President Donald Trump's administration for defying his mandate to enforce Title IX. 

Kern County Board of Education President Mary Little told Fox News Digital her board's unanimous 6-0 resolution was in response to Newsom's "illegal" defiance of federal law.
