Title IX

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive federal financial assistance. The law applies to every single aspect of education, including recruitment, admissions, counseling, financial assistance, and athletics.

Title IX Regulations

The Trump administration reinstated the 2020 Title IX regulations. Ongoing Title IX investigations opened under the Biden-era regulations will be reevaluated using the 2020 Title IX regulations. Officials within the U.S. Department of Education stated that the agency will return to enforcing Title IX protections on the basis of biological sex in schools and on campuses. The 2020 Title IX regulations limit reporting to incidents that took place on campus and more narrowly define sexual harassment compared to the Biden-era regulations, among other changes. The U.S. Department of Education released a "Dear Colleague" Letter clarifying how Title IX is being enforced consistent with the Trump administrations executive order, "Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government."
