The Department of Education demanded that the NCAA strip the records and awards of the male athletes who competed in female sports

The Department of Education wrote a letter to the National Collegiate Athletic Association ( NCAA ) and the National Federation of State High School Associations ( NFHS ) demanding that they take action to restore the awards, records, and titles that female athletes would have won had they not been displaced by male athletes who identified as female.

The letter also pointed to an executive order from President Donald Trump that strips funding from schools that force female athletes to compete with males.
