๐จ ๐บ๐ธ TRUMP ADMIN CUTS UNIVERSITY FUNDING AS MAINE STANDS FIRM ON TRANS ATHLETES
The USDA has paused all funding to the University of Maine System's eight public colleges as Maine defies Trump's executive order banning transgender athletes from women's sports.
At stake is nearly $30 million in research grants for 2024 alone, with the USDA claiming it has provided over $100 million to Maine universities in recent years.
The action follows a heated White House confrontation between Trump and Governor Janet Mills, who has threatened legal action if federal funds are withheld.
Meanwhile, HHS has already determined Maine violated Title IX and referred the matter to the Department of Justice.
