Show Notes

U.S. Justice Department launches probe into California and Maine for allegedly violating female inmates rights by housing them based on gender identity rather than sex at birth. State leaders argue these policies align with transgender rights and federal law, while federal officials claim they expose women to risks from male-bodied individuals. Allegations of sexual assaults, harassment, and intimidation in these facilities have led to the investigation, with both sides emphasizing inmate safety.
