Reactions

[edit]

The NCAA president Charlie Baker stated that the NCAA would comply with the executive order, and praised it for providing "a clear, national standard" on the issue compared to the existing conflicting state laws and court decisions previously.[4][5]

The California Interscholastic Federation which sanctions High School sports in California stated that it would continue to follow state law and allow trans athletes to play high school sports despite the executive order.[6]
