It’s a quick hitter with the snow coming to an end 11 PM to 3 AM from west to east.

This will not be a big event, but likely enough to cause some slippery travel on Monday morning.

Maine Human Rights Commission adds MSAD 52 to lawsuit over transgender sports policies


TURNER, Maine (WGME) — The Maine Human Rights Commission is adding a sixth school district to their lawsuit over transgender policies in schools across the state, that’s according to our media partners at the Sun Journal.

Earlier this year, President Trump signed an executive order aimed at keeping transgender athletes out of girls’ sports, arguing it protects fair opportunities under Title IX.

In a board meeting on Thursday, MSAD 52 voted to align Trump’s polices with the district.

Shortly after, the district was added to the list of schools being sued.

“I think it comes to a point where it goes against the state, but we gotta do what’s right. And I think it’s right to support female athletes,” Board Chair Peter Ricker said. “I think there are potential lawsuits regardless on the issue until the state makes up their mind and until the feds make up their mind.”

The board voted 5-4 in favor of passing a policy to keep transgender athletes out of girls sports.
