The 6th Circuit said the department had not followed the proper procedures for making new rules, and did not address whether a federal law banning sex discrimination in education extends protections to LGBTQ students
A U.S. appeals court on Friday rejected a bid by President Joe Biden’s administration’s to revive its directive that schools allow transgender students to use bathrooms and locker rooms and to join sports teams that align with their gender, which has been blocked in 20 Republican-led states.
The court affirmed a Tennessee federal judge’s 2022 decision blocking enforcement of the guidance against the 20 states, including the many public universities they operate, pending the outcome of their lawsuit. “The Biden administration’s radical push to redefine sex threatens the equal opportunities that women and girls have enjoyed for 50 years,” said Matt Bowman, a lawyer with the group.
The department in April adopted formal, binding regulations extending Title IX’s protections to LGBTQ students, which are not affected by Friday’s ruling.
