The Biden administration has released its radical revision of the Trump-era changes to Title IX that would force the nation’s schools to adhere to the radical transgender agenda.
The Biden revisions would expand the federal gender equity rules to include transgender ideology and weaken the Trump administration’s requirements for due process for students accused of misconduct.
Proposed rules will extend prohibition against discrimination based upon sex, and would enshrine trans agenda through the inclusion of assumed sexual identity. Title IX current regulations don’t mention transgender people.
“Our proposed changes would fully protect students from all forms of sex discrimination, instead of limiting some protections to sexual harassment alone, and make clear those protections include discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity,”According to NBC News on Thursday, Miguel Cardona, Secretary of Education said that.

If implemented, all schools that take federal funding would ostensibly be forced to allow males claiming to be females into girls’ locker rooms and bathrooms and would force schools to allow males claiming to be girls onto girls’ sports teams. This would go against the trend in states to ban transgender girls from participating in school sports along with their natural-born counterparts.
13 states currently have laws that prohibit transgender women athletes from participating in school sports. Nine other states are currently considering similar legislation, or already have rules that have yet to take effect.
A group of conservative civil liberties organizations decried Biden’s proposed changes, saying that the new rules would “rob girls and women of equal athletic opportunities by requiring schools to allow biological boys and men to compete in women’s athletics.”
The group wrote to Miguel Cardona the Secretary of Education stating that they would continue traditional gender separations. “illegal”The rule.
“For schools, this means that female sports teams, bathrooms, and locker rooms would be open to anyone who ‘identifies’ as female, and vice versa,”Their letter was a warning. “Under the Department’s new rules, separating athletic teams and intimate facilities based on biological sex would be illegal. If a high school boy declares that he “identifies” as a girl, the school would be required to allow him to walk into the girls’ locker room while girls are changing, or enter the girls’ bathroom to use the facilities alongside his female peers. Any attempt to prevent this would be discriminatory conduct prohibited by Title IX.”
They also warned against the possibility that the Biden proposal will cancel the “basic due process protections have formed the bedrock of established civil rights jurisprudence for centuries.”
The new Biden regulations would significantly weaken students’ rights for sexual harassment and misconduct. They allow colleges to deny students the right to cross-examine accused students, or even hold live hearings. The schools will also be able to prosecute students for any incidents occurring outside of school premises. In addition, school investigators are now allowed to decide the outcome of any case. This is in place of simply accumulating the facts. These provisions are in violation of American law and weaken rights. “innocent until proven guilty.”
Now, the Biden proposal is open for public comment. The period will last sixty days. It will take several months for the process to be completed. If Congress votes in November, then a conservative-led legislative body could stop it.
