"This is not just about who can compete on the athletic field, this is about whether a president can force compliance with his will."

"the president of the United States has targeted one particular group on one particular issue which Maine law has addressed."

"No president—Republican or Democrat—can withhold federal funding authorized and appropriated by Congress."

"this is about whether a president can force compliance with his will, without regard for the rule of law."
