May Mailman Announces $45 Billion Title IX Lawsuit Against California Over Men in Women's Sports
White House Deputy Assistant to the President May Mailman reveals a major Title IX lawsuit against California that puts $45 billion in federal school funding at risk. The lawsuit centers on California's policy allowing biological men to compete in women's sports and use women's locker rooms, which the administration argues violates federal law prohibiting sex-based discrimination. California has repeatedly refused to change its policies despite warnings, even as Governor Gavin Newsom himself admitted on a podcast that men competing in women's sports creates an "issue of fairness." The administration also announces subpoenas against Harvard University over allegations of discrimination against American students, racism in admissions, and lack of transparency regarding foreign student activities. Both actions represent the administration's commitment to enforce Title IX protections and combat discrimination in educational institutions.
May Mailman, White House Deputy Assistant to the President and Senior Policy Strategist, announced a major federal lawsuit against California that could result in the state losing $45 billion in federal school funding. The lawsuit stems from California's continued violation of Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in educational institutions receiving federal funds.
According to Mailman, California has been warned repeatedly about its violation of Title IX by forcing women to shower and change with biological men and allowing men to compete in women's athletics. The state has categorically refused to change its policies, even after the California Interscholastic Foundation requested clarity on the matter.
Gavin Newsom's Contradictory Stance
The timing of the lawsuit is particularly notable given Governor Gavin Newsom's own admission about the unfairness of biological men competing in women's sports. During an appearance on Newsom's podcast, the governor acknowledged that a biological man winning a state championship in the women's long jump represented "an issue of fairness" and that he "completely agree[d]" with concerns about the unfairness.
However, despite Newsom's public acknowledgment, California has doubled down on its policy. When the California Athletic Group asked for clarification following Newsom's podcast statements, the state categorically confirmed that individuals can "self-identify into whatever category you would like to."
Newsom is currently in South Carolina campaigning for the 2028 presidency, as Democrats have restructured their primary calendar, making South Carolina the new first state instead of Iowa and New Hampshire.
What California Must Do to Comply
To achieve victory in the lawsuit and retain federal funding, California must take several steps. First, the state must change its current policies that allow biological men to compete in women's sports and access women's facilities. Second, California must restore all awards to rightful winners who were displaced by male competitors. Third, the state would need to provide back pay for all the years it has been out of compliance with federal law.
Mailman dismissed California's proposed solution of simply adding additional competitors to events when a biological man participates, calling it "the opposite of a solution" that would only force more women to experience humiliation and unfair competition. She noted that this proposed fix actually acknowledges the sex difference between men and women, undermining California's own position.
The Broader Implications Beyond Sports
Mailman emphasized that the issue extends far beyond athletic competition. The policy of allowing boys to compete as girls represents what she called "social transition"—a first step that often leads to chemical interventions and eventually surgical procedures. She argued that schools pushing these policies are confusing children about basic biological reality and setting them on a path toward lifelong struggles.
The lawsuit represents one of the administration's 20 campaign promises: no men in women's sports. Mailman emphasized this is not just a political issue but a moral imperative to protect women and girls from discrimination and to prevent children from being pushed toward irreversible medical interventions.
Harvard Faces Federal Subpoenas
In addition to the California lawsuit, Mailman announced that the administration has issued subpoenas to Harvard University. The subpoenas demand information about foreign students and allegations of discrimination against American students.
According to Mailman, Harvard discriminates against American students while giving preferential treatment to foreign students. The university allegedly punishes American students for infractions while letting foreign students off the hook to avoid potential deportation issues. The administration wants to investigate what foreign students are doing at Harvard, particularly since they participate in federal programs.
Harvard's Continued Resistance
Mailman stated that Harvard, like Columbia and other universities, had the opportunity to cooperate with the administration and acknowledge problems with how Jewish students were treated and discrimination in admissions. Instead, Harvard has chosen to "double down" and resist compliance.
The administration particularly wants to investigate Harvard's admissions practices, which they believe discriminate against white and Asian American students. Mailman characterized this as "active racist discrimination" happening every single day at the institution.
The administration's focus includes examining Harvard's violations of the Students for Fair Admissions precedent, which addressed race-based discrimination in college admissions. Despite being given opportunities to resolve these issues cooperatively, Harvard has continued to resist federal oversight and requests for information.
Both the California Title IX lawsuit and the Harvard subpoenas represent coordinated federal pressure on educational institutions to comply with anti-discrimination laws and protect students' rights. The administration has made clear it will continue pursuing these enforcement actions until institutions change their policies and practices.
