Federal Judge Halts Biden's Title IX Rule in Four States
The court found the new regulations on gender identity and sexual orientation likely violate existing laws and constitutional rights.
- Judge Terry A. Doughty issued a preliminary injunction against the Biden administration's Title IX rule changes.
- The ruling affects Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, and Idaho, with other states likely to follow.
- The court argued the rule contradicts the original intent of Title IX to protect biological women.
- The Biden administration's interpretation of 'sex discrimination' under Title IX was deemed an overreach.
- Opponents of the rule celebrated the decision, citing concerns over privacy and safety.
