TITLE IX LEGAL Toolkit
Citizens Defending Freedom is helping parents protect their children against the Biden administration’s attempt to force schools to recognize “gender identity” and sexuality under Title IX, which has no legal basis.
Title IX is posited on the differences between the sexes, not their dilution, to ensure equal opportunity and privacy among the sexes.
Please bring this toolkit to your local school board to protect children from legitimate safety and privacy concerns.
CALL TO ACTION.
Leave a public comment to let the Biden Administration know that the newly issued Title IX is an unlawful expansion of regulatory authority.
CALL TO ACTION
Protect the safety and privacy of our children.
UPDATE: On April 6, 2023, the Biden administration lawlessly introduced its Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on Title IX that would expand the meaning of sex discrimination that would force schools to allow students of the opposite biological sex to play on athletic teams consistent with their espoused gender identity. The proposed regulation may be accessed here.
The public comments period will be for 30 days following the publication of the NPRM in the Federal Register. We ask that you submit your comments to the Federal Register and consult our “resource” page below for further guidance on how to make your voice heard.
Recently, a number of federal agencies including the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Justice, among others, have issued guidelines on Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination, that seek to broaden the language of the text to include sexual orientation and gender identity as protected categories. This is a response to President Biden’s Executive Order 13988 “Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation” and the 2020 Supreme Court ruling in Bostock v. Clayton County (207 L. Ed. 2d 218), a Title VII case involving employment discrimination that has since been misinterpreted to push an unlawful and unconstitutional understanding of Title IX that, among other things:
-
Allows a student’s chosen gender identity to replace his or her biological sex when deciding which bathroom he or she uses, or which athletic team he or she participates in.
-
Erodes student privacy by permitting biological males to undress in otherwise sex-separated, intimate facilities reserved for biological females.
-
Eradicates Title IX’s sex-specific protections by systemically disadvantaging female students in schools forced to compete against biological males identifying as women in sports competitions.
-
Forces every college and university receiving federal funds to admit biological males identifying as females to women’s sporting events or else face boundless civil rights lawsuits.
-
Coerces doctors into performing harmful and irreversible medical procedures that violate their right to religion and conscience.
To address the misapplication of Bostock and combat the spread of misinformation, Citizens Defending Freedom has developed a fact sheet, script, and timeline to 1) clarify the legal issues; 2) provide guidance to concerned parents and patriot citizens alike; and 3) ensure that students are afforded the protections to which they are entitled.
