Tuesday after President Donald Trump criticized her participation in a social media post, though the group said it decided on the rule change before that.Here’s what to know:
Former California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law in 2013 allowing students to participate in sex-segregated school programs, including on sports teams, and use bathrooms and other facilities that align with their gender identity.A Republican-led effort to block that lawin the Democratic-dominated Legislature. Another proposal that also failed would have required the federation to ban students whose sex was assigned male at birth from participating on a girls school sports team.
Bill Essayli, a Trump-appointed federal prosecutor for the Central District of California, announced an investigation Wednesday into the federation and the Jurupa Unified School District, which includes Hernandez’s high school, to determine whether federal sex discrimination law was violated by allowing trans girls to compete in girls’ sports.The federation said it was launching a “pilot entry process” to allow more girls to participate in the championship track-and-field meet. It only applies to the three events in which Hernandez is competing: triple jump, long jump and high jump.
The group says “biological female student-athletes who would have earned the next qualifying mark” at the recent qualifying event have been invited to participate in the championships. The rule change may be the first attempt nationally by a high school sports governing body to expand competition when trans athletes are participating.
If a transgender athlete medals, their ranking would not displace a “biological female” student from medaling, the federation confirmed. In high jump, triple jump and long jump, a “biological female” who would have earned podium placement will get the medal for that place and will be reflected in the records, the federation said.The new airport is a $1.5 billion joint venture between the Cambodian government and the Overseas Cambodian Investment Corp. It’s being built by the China Construction Third Engineering Bureau Group Co., Ltd.
The architects for the airport are the British firm Foster + Partners, whose website says its “design embodies a strong sense of place” and is “responsive to the tropical climate.” The terminal building sits under what is described as a single overarching roof canopy that is a lightweight steel grid shell, “with an innovative screen that filters daylight and illuminates the vast terminal space.”Construction is being undertaken in three phases. Initially, the airport is expected to be capable of handling up to 13 million passengers a year, with capacity increased up to 30 million passengers after 2030, and then up to 50 million passengers in 2050.
It will be the second major airport in Cambodia to open in the space of two years. In 2023, the Chinese-financedbegan operations in the northwestern province of Siem Reap, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) east of the centuries-old
