| Supreme Court strikes down Biden-Harris Title IX change that some argued would allow men in women's sports |
| 2024-08-17 |
| [FoxNews] The Biden administration claimed the rule wouldn't permit biological men to compete in women's sports, but many experts disagreed. The Supreme Court voted 5-4 Friday to reject a Biden administration emergency request to enforce portions of a new rule that includes protections from discrimination for transgender students under Title IX. The request would have permitted biological men in women’s bathrooms, locker rooms and dorms in 10 states where there are state-level and local-level rules in place to prevent it. The sweeping rule was issued in April and clarified that Title IX’s ban on "sex" discrimination in schools covers discrimination based on gender identity, sexual orientation and "pregnancy or related conditions." The rule took effect Aug. 1, and, for the first time, the law stated that discrimination based on sex includes conduct related to a person’s gender identity. Conservative Justice Neil Gorsuch, dissented, agreeing with the three liberal justices and the Biden administration that the lower court rulings were "overbroad." Earlier this week, a group of 102 female athletes and 26 states petitioned the Supreme Court to take up a challenge over state laws that ban transgender women from competing against biological female athletes, according to a filing obtained by The Washington Times. The petitioners argued that physical fitness tests demonstrate that there is a difference between men and women at every age. "A growing number of women and girls have been facing the humiliating and damaging experience of being forced to compete against males who identify as transgender in the women’s sports category," the athletes’ filing states. "It is hard to express the pain, humiliation, frustration and shame women experience when they are forced to compete against males in sport. It is public shaming and suffering, an exclusion from women’s own category." |

| #4 NOW was just another Marxist front to undermine Western Civ. Since those pushing this latest agenda are also Marxists trying to undermine Western Civ, they ignore it out of professional courtesy. |

| #3 It seems 4 Justices support Mental Illness over common sense and morality. BTW: Where is N.O.W. on this? Because any Numb skull, knows Guys dressing like girls in sports will always win out because of general genetic muscle advantages. Remember East Germany Females injecting male hormones, won repeatedly in 1976 and 1980 Olympics over normal females. |
