Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton says he's continuing efforts to hold school districts accountable for questionable student policies, such as allowing transgender boys to play on girls' sports teams.

On Monday, Paxton sent letters to the Superintendents of Hutto Independent School District (ISD) and Richardson ISD, demanding documents related to public claims made by district employees that it's possible to "work around" state laws that govern the ability of biological boys to be part of girls' teams.

“The woke school officials endangering female athletes and trying to undermine girls’ athletics by letting boys compete should know that there will be consequences for all unlawful activity,” Paxton said about the demands.

The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Director for Hutto ISD said recently that parents can find "workarounds" that would allow male students to participate in girls' sports by changing the sex on a birth certificate.

And the DEI executive director for Richardson ISD is reported to have told a parent that if a male high school student were to spend a night at a hotel while on a school trip, the boy might be allowed to share a room with female students, according to Paxton.

The Richardson official also implied that the district would allow male students to be part of female sports teams.

The AG's efforts today follow his requests last week for extensive documents from the Dallas Independent School District and Irving ISD, after the Attorney General said he had learned at least one official in each district had given parents "alarming recommendations that could potentially reflect an unstated policy of not upholding Texas state law protecting women’s athletics," according to Paxton's office.

In last week's Dallas ISD letter, the AG's office noted reports that Dallas ISD’s LGBT Youth Program Coordinator, Mahoganie Gaston, was filmed telling a parent that a male student would be allowed to participate in girls’ sports if the parent changed the birth certificate of their son to “female.”

And the AG's office said Gaston claimed that the district “find[s] the loopholes in everything" and that she's willing to go to jail for defying Texas law.

And in a similar manner, Irving ISD’s Executive Director of Campus Operations Reny Lizardo was recently filmed informing a parent that a male student "could play in women’s sports if the parents changed the male student’s birth certificate to 'female'," the AG's office added.
