Trump is holding the funds hostage and will allow kids to go hungry unless Maine discriminates.

Caught yesterday's Last Week Tonight? 👀

You might have seen ProPublica & @bangordailynews.bsky.social's reporting about how multiple federal agencies began investigating Maine after it refused to bar transgender girls from playing girls' sports.

Read the full piece: propub.li/3XQYVym
Screenshot from "Last Week Tonight." On the right, John Oliver is mid-speech, wearing an expression of surprise. To his left, a March 22, 2025 headline from ProPublica and Bangor Daily News reads: "Two Transgender Girls, Six Federal Agencies. How Trump Is Trying to Pressure Maine Into Obedience." A quote from the article says: "Only two transgender girls are competing this school year ..."
