HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The Trump administration says the University of Pennsylvania illegally denied women equal opportunities by letting a transgender swimmer compete on the school’s women’s team and into team facilities. The administration’s statement Monday doesn’t name Lia Thomas, the transgender swimmer who last competed for the Ivy League school in 2022. But the investigation opened in February by the U.S. Education Department focused on Thomas, who became a leading symbol of transgender athletes and a prominent political target. The department wants Penn to strip Thomas of any awards and apologize to female swimmers. Penn had no immediate comment, but has said that it always followed NCAA and Ivy League policies. (Photo: AP)
