SCOTUS Allows GOP-Led States to Continue Blocking Expansion of Title IX

HeadlineAug 19, 2024

The U.S. Supreme Court denied an emergency request from the Biden administration to allow its expanded Title IX rules to take effect. Earlier this year, the Biden administration updated the federal policy protecting against sex-based discrimination in schools to include LGBTQ+ and transgender students, as well as pregnant people and survivors of sexual assault. The expanded civil rights policy was supposed to go into effect on August 1, before Republican-led states moved to block it.
