(The Center Square) – California Attorney General Rob Bonta joined 12 Democratic attorneys general on Tuesday, submitting an amicus brief opposing a legal challenge to Minnesota’s policies that allow transgender athletes to participate in female sports.

The brief was submitted to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit in Female Athletes United v. Ellison. The case challenges Minnesota’s statewide policy permitting transgender athletes to compete in female sports.
