(CNN) — The Trump administration has released $175 million in previously frozen federal funding to the University of Pennsylvania, a White House official told CNN on Wednesday, following an agreement on how the university would handle transgender athletes.
The funding release comes after the school reached an agreement with the federal government to block transgender athletes from female sports teams and erase the records set by swimmer Lia Thomas.
“We told them that institutions that violate federal civil rights law could lose their federal funding … So UPenn came back to the table and asked us what they can do to make it right,” Department of Education Secretary Linda McMahon said in remarks announcing the UPenn agreement Tuesday.
“We said, ‘You have to completely rewrite your institutional policy.’ They signed on the dotted line,” McMahon said. “We said, ‘You have to take these steps with records and reporting so this never happens again.’”
There's male sports and female sports
yeah that's all.
