Federal judge strikes down Biden's Title IX rules expanding protections for LGBTQ+ students, siding with six states.

A federal judge in Kentucky has invalidated the Biden administration's Title IX rules that aimed to expand protections for LGBTQ+ students, ruling that the regulations overstepped legal boundaries and violated free speech by mandating teachers use pronouns aligning with a student's gender identity. The decision responds to a lawsuit by six states and affects a 1,500-page regulation that had already been halted in 26 states. The Education Department did not comment on the ruling.
