"The Trump Administration’s Department of Education held four Kansas school districts accountable: Kansas City, Olathe, Shawnee Mission, and Topeka violated federal law by hiding children’s gender transitions from parents and allowing biological males into girls’ bathrooms, locker rooms, and sports.
