Florida has initiated a lawsuit against the Biden administration over changes to Title IX, alleging that the revisions pose a significant threat to women's rights. The lawsuit follows a broader backlash against the administration's policy, which has been criticized for redefining sex and allowing biological men to participate in women's sports. This controversy has sparked a wave of legal actions, with a total of 15 states filing lawsuits against the federal government. Critics, including celebrity fitness trainer Jillian Michaels and a parents' rights group, have voiced strong opposition, describing the policy as absurd and a grave threat.
