Biden’s landmark Title IX rules overturned: Federal judge scraps 1,500-page regulation, impacting protections for LGBTQ+ students

A U.S. District Court in Kentucky has struck down the Biden administration’s expanded Title IX regulations, which aimed to protect LGBTQ+ students, including transgender individuals, from discrimination in education. The court ruled that the regulations overstepped federal authority, returning Title IX protections to their original scope. The decision has sparked mixed reactions, with LGBTQ+ advocates expressing disappointment, while conservatives hail it as a victory for privacy rights. The ruling is expected to be appealed.
