Supreme Court Blocks Biden's Title IX LGBTQ Protections in 26 States, 5-4 Decision
Aug 16, 2024, 11:10 PM
The U.S. Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, has blocked the Biden administration's attempt to enforce its entire Title IX rules aimed at protecting LGBTQ students from discrimination. The decision prevents the implementation of these rules in 26 states, including 10 Republican-led states that challenged them. The court's ruling maintains the block on the administration's policy, which sought to extend protections to transgender students in schools and colleges. Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, Jackson, and Gorsuch dissented in the decision. The blocked rules would have allowed transgender students to participate in sports and access facilities corresponding to their gender identity.
