Idaho, Mississippi, and Montana joined the lawsuit.
Louisiana filed a lawsuit against President Joe Biden over clarifications that Title IX allows men in female sports and spaces.
Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill said: “This is all for a political agenda, ignoring significant safety concerns for young women students in pre-schools, elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, colleges and universities across Louisiana and the entire country. These schools now have to change the way they behave and the way they speak, and whether they can have private spaces for little girls or women. It is enormously invasive, and it is much more than a suggestion; it is a mandate that well exceeds their statutory authority. This all coming from the people who don’t even know how to define the word ‘woman.’ I’ll always stand up for children and families across this state.”
Idaho, Mississippi, and Montana joined the lawsuit.
“For 50 years Title IX has protected girls and women’s rights, but President Biden has abandoned those protections to appease the woke left,” stated Montana Attorney General Knudsen. “This rule is not based in scientific reality. It redefines biological sex which will allow men to compete in women’s sports, violate women’s privacy, and put women and girls in dangerous situations on campus. I will continue to fight to protect women and uphold Montana’s laws against federal overreach.”
The Final Rule is 89 FR 33474 – Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance.
The Department clarified “sex-based harassment” to include discrimination against “sex stereotypes, sex characteristics, pregnancy or related conditions, sexual orientation, and gender identity.”
“In addition, the Rule subverts Title IX’s purpose and will particularly harm the precise population that Title IX was meant to help most – women and girls, who will now face increased threats to privacy and safety, not to mention will lose spots on sports teams and podiums,” wrote the plaintiffs.
The Department of Education refused to provide a narrow definition of “sex” “to avoid overbroad application of a prohibition on discrimination based on sex stereotypes.”
