Georgia AG files suit against Biden administration for Title IX revision: 'Destroying women's sports'

Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr has taken action against the Biden administration’s revised Title IX rule, in which sex discrimination includes discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation. 

The revision also fails to forbid schools from enacting bans on transgender athletes competing against biological females, which Carr believes upends the foundation of women’s sports.

"The Biden administration is destroying women’s sports by gutting commonsense provisions that protect female athletes and demanding that biological males be allowed to compete against females," Carr said, via a press release. "Today we have taken action to defend women’s rights to fair competition, and we will keep fighting until we end this absurdity once and for all."

Alabama, South Carolina, Florida, the Independent Women’s Law Center, Independent Women’s Network, Parents Defending Education and Speech First, Inc. are also listed as plaintiffs in the complaint. 

The Biden administration’s revision of Title IX redefines "sex" as "gender identity" and "sexual orientation," while also requiring schools to ensure students use "preferred pronouns" for their classmates. If not, the school is at risk of losing federal funding.
