Adolescents in Maine open to the transit sporting chaos that rocked the high school experience

A team of Break Iil High School students from Brarik helped lead a march in a march in a march Capitol Maine Building in Ugusta last week.

They went to Spar with the Legislative Board of the Democrats on three draft laws that would prohibit biological Males are girls’ sports A case that sent the seasons of its mandate and sports in chaos in 2025.

For three of them, that was their first political gathering, and they occupied the center of the lead. They had to wander through the pro -men who support men outside the building, and the liberal legislators refused inside it.

“It was a little frightening, knowing that they do not have the same beliefs like us,” said Hailey Hames, a protester for the first time at Fox News Digital.

But Hames said she realized that she had to join the battle to protect the gyms of girls from passing athletes when her English teacher assigned her an article on the subject on March 12.

Just one month ago, Hemsat and other sports witnessed the pole cellar leap whose mandate fell into a national conflict, when a converted athlete won the first place in the pole cellar for girls for Grili High School in early February.

“I saw this male electrode standing on the platform and we were all like us to look” we are completely sure that this is not a girl. There is no girl’s way. ”It was really frustrated, especially for girls on the platform and not primarily. Which led me to fight for them. ”

Therefore, Himes, along with her teammates and field teams, Lucy Cheney and Carlin Back, in Augusta, followed the progress of his colleague in the Peninsula of Al Jazeera Brezk Iil, Cassidi Carlel, who has already participated in two marches in Augusta and trips to Washington, DC, to meet the leaders of the Republican Party in this case.

The group has gained a lot of experience in dealing with the differences that involve a athlete across, near the home for years. Years ago, the girls saw their high school vibration in a mode that includes a converted athlete, when a biological man joined the tennis team for girls.

“We have heard all of friends and no one of us did, so it was just a kind of oral things,” Cheney said. “At this stage, we were unable to do anything about it because the administration agreed to allow them to play, so we really had to accept this, and no one else in the team wanted to accept it really, but they had to do so.”

All the four girls added that she soon became one of the most discovered topics at the Brezk Iil Secondary School when this happened for the first time, and continued during the year 2022-23 and 2023-24, before the passing athlete graduated last summer.

Now, this year, they all had to compete under the shadow of a national conflict between their mandate and President Donald Trump because the governor of the state Janet Mills and the democratic majority had committed to keeping the athletes transformed in girls’ sports.

Mills’ position at the cost of federal financing for high schools in the state risk risk leaving Carlis, Hims, Cheney, Buck and their team -mate are facing competition anxiety against athletes crossing the prejudices of the state.

Maine Baghdad rocked the dominance of the athletes in the path of girls, amid constant legal conflict with Trump

When the four teenagers entered the Capitol on Thursday, they came face to face with the individuals who were fighting to keep the athletes converted in their sports. The democratic majority of the Legislative Authority in Mine’s state was actively resisting and promoting the Trump administration for several months due to “keeping men from sports.”

But now three draft laws supported by the Republic- LD 868and LD 233 and LD 1134 – They were on their own land to reverse its policy, and more than dozens of athletes for girls in secondary schools in Maine were there to fight the Democrats for that.

“They definitely asked much less questions for people who have not agreed with them more than the people who agree with them, and you can say they do not feel sympathetic,” said Qini of Democratic leaders.

“They became emotional only when (supportive speakers) shared them, and they seem to be really careful to them, and they wanted to support them, and they did not feel the same as they wanted to hear our side.”

Back said that when the Democrats came to them with questions, they looked “hostile”.

“They seemed more hostile to our testimonies when they asked questions,” said Back. “I felt that many questions were healing.”

However, teenagers were keen to allow everyone in the room to know what they were dealing with, as the athletes crossing the Maine qualifiers threaten Maine in their entire season.

A converted athlete across House, North Yarmouth Academy in Yarmouth, recently, took control of the events of girls with an area of ​​800 meters and 1,600 meters in Poland-Niya Yarmouth Syakast, prompting national anger.

“For my teammates, and some of my best friend in the team who are in the events with (crossing athletes), it is really unfortunate for them, and our team as a whole because these points will affect the classification of our team,” said Hems.

“It is not only the points, but our colleagues will feel frustrated when they are put in an event against them because they really realize that the result has been identified, while playing against a biological man stronger than biologically, so they have no chance.”

Carlail is already aware of this feeling of defeat, after losing to the same athlete who took control of Poland-Naynmouth Syakast in running and skiing competitions in the past, dating back to 2023. Moreover, she had to first test the change in the cabinet room with a male in the seventh grade when she was a passing student in the gym.

Maine’s state of participating in the transit sports battle reveals how the state’s policies are attached to her career and athletic biography

But so far, as an ascending crusade against the inclusion of the transit in girls’ sport, after she attended marches, held meetings from the Republican Party lawyer, and even a press conference of the Ministry of Justice announces a lawsuit against Maine on this case, she says she still has sexual transformation.

“I am almost communicating with them daily, and we did not have negative interactions,” Carlal said. “For people who want to say that we do not accept, this is not the problem. We do not have a problem in general with converting people. We have a problem when you start affecting our lives.”

Carlal saved her dissatisfaction, not for converting people, or even converting athletes, but for mills.

“She looks at us directly and says” I don’t care about you. “When I vote next time, I will take it completely.”

All four teenagers plan to take regular trips to the Capitol building for the state to pressure on behalf of the LD 868, LD 233 and LD 1134 until they are registered in the law, as they seek to keep males outside their sport, and maintaining federal financing go to their schools.

“Our schools need federal financing,” Carlal said. So (MLLS), she now not only looks at Maine Girl athletes and says, “I don’t really care about you.” She looks at students in Maine and says: “I do not care about you and I do not care if your school gets financing, because I will choose a battle that you do not really need to choose.”

The Ministry of Justice accused the state of “federal laws and combating discrimination frankly and joyfully in sports competitions for girls,” according to the complaint obtained by Fox News Degiki.

Mills, the Ministry of Education in the state of Mine and the Mini Manager Association, holds a firm support to continue to enable the inclusion in the sport of girls throughout the state, noting the Human Rights Law in Mine as a precedent to determine the qualification between the sexes.

Meanwhile, the two regions of the Maine School have already taken matters in their hands, as both MSAD No. 70 and RSU No. 24 moved to amend their own policies to keep athletes passing by girls.

In addition to those educational areas and young women such as Carlail, Pak, Hems and Sheney, Mills and Democrats, they may end up facing more internal resistance than abroad.

A Wipe The American Parents Alliance found that among the about 600 registered voters in Maine, 63 % said that school sports participation should be based on biological sex, and 66 % agreed that it is just fair to restrict women’s sports to biological women.

The poll also found that 60 % of the population will support the polling scale that limits the participation in Women and girls sport for Biological females. This included 64 % of independents and 66 % of parents with children under the age of 18.

But so far, the ruler has been firm in Trump’s opposition on this case, even at the expense of the legal fees funded by taxpayers.

“I am happy to go to the court and satisfy the cases that were raised in this complaint from the court,” Mills told reporters in April.
