Two days after President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning transgender participation in female sports on Wednesday, the Colorado High School Activities Association declined to clarify where it stands on the issue.

At this time, we have no further comment.” “The Department of Education stands proudly with President Trump’s action as we prioritize Title IX enforcement against educational institutions that refuse to give female athletes the Title IX protections they deserve,”While CHSAA declined to spell out its position, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis’ office pushed back on Trump’s executive order.
