Regulators to issue new gender rules and revise Title IX
< < Go Back
A forthcoming proposed rule by the Department of Education to weaponize Title IX to push the Left’s gender ideology agenda.
The Department of Education has said it will release a new Title IX rule in April 2022 that will expand the definition of the word “sex” as used in Title IX to include: “sex stereotypes, sex-related characteristics (including intersex traits), pregnancy or related conditions, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
Regulations carry the power of law. And words have meaning. The new rule will create a clash with the many state laws that prevent transgender (biologically male) athletes from competing in women’s sports and will initiate a flood of litigation nationwide.
This change will affect every sex-segregated private space (bathrooms, locker rooms), housing accommodation (dorms, overnight accommodations), sport, or other program at any educational institution that receives federal financial aid—whether directly or indirectly.
This is an effort by Biden administration to bypass legislators and force this dangerous ideology upon our nation’s students, from kindergarten through college.
