Maine Governor, Janet Mills, is standing up to President Trump and refusing to comply with his executive order barring transgender women from women's sports. The clash between the two leaders has escalated, with the federal government launching investigations and freezing funding for the state. Despite the pressure, Mills has remained steadfast in her stance, filing a lawsuit against the Trump administration. Her refusal to back down is not surprising to those who have watched her political career, as she has a history of standing up to powerful figures. The feud has raised Mills' profile and intensified feelings about her both in Maine and across the country.
