The Trump administration is investigating the Oregon Department of Education after receiving a complaint from a conservative non-profit group alleging the state was violating civil rights law by allowing transgender girls to compete on girls sports teams. The U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights opened the investigation based on a complaint saying high-school aged female athletes in the state had lost medals and other competitive opportunities to transgender athletes.

The policy is listed under the USOPC Athlete Safety Policy and follows a similar move by the NCAA earlier this year. National governing bodies for various sports like swimming and track and field are expected to comply with the directive.
