Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday revealed that two liberal states, Minnesota and California, could be getting the Maine treatment by the Department of Justice in the near future.
Both states have continued to flout Title IX rules, allowing males into girls’ and women’s spaces and sports. The DOJ has already targeted Maine for its refusal to comply with federal law, filing a civil lawsuit against the state this week.
“I wanted to ask if there are other states that you’re focused on — which ones are next for these types of abuses, including men in women’s prisons?” Daily Wire reporter Mary Margaret Olohan asked the AG during a presser on Wednesday.
“We’re looking at Minnesota, we’re looking at California — we’re looking at many, many states, but they are the top two that should be on notice, because we have been communicating with them,” Bondi responded.
“And just like Maine … we don’t want to be suing people, we want them to comply with the law, and that’s what we’re doing. We have given [Maine] opportunity over and over again,” the AG continued. “The Department of Education, HHS, they went and sat down with them in person, multiple meetings, and got nowhere.”
“So, now, this is where we are, because they refused to protect young women in their state,” Bondi continued. “Minnesota, California, multiple states.”
