House Republicans Challenge Biden's Title IX Revisions

New legislation aims to reverse changes expanding protections for transgender students and athletes in federally funded schools.

  • Nearly 70 House Republicans, led by Rep. Mary Miller, introduced a bill to counter Biden's Title IX amendments.
  • The Biden administration's changes include protections based on gender identity and sexual orientation, effective August 1.
  • Critics argue the revisions undermine women's rights and safety in single-sex spaces like bathrooms and locker rooms.
  • Supporters of the bill claim the new rules conflict with Title IX's original intent to protect women from sex-based discrimination.
  • Lawsuits from multiple states are expected to challenge the new regulations, potentially delaying their implementation.
