Quick Glance: Biden Administration Expands Title IX Protection for LGBTQ Students, Assault Victims
- The Biden administration released rules that protect the rights of LGBTQ students and change how schools can respond to allegations of sexual assault and misconduct.
- The Education Department updated Title IX, the 1972 law prohibiting sex discrimination in school programs, with the changes set to take effect on August 1.
- The new rules eliminate in-person court-like proceedings for sexual assault allegations, broaden the definition of sexual harassment, and officially expand Title IX interpretation to cover pregnant, gay, and transgender students.
- These changes have sparked mixed reviews and controversy, with supporters praising the increased safety for students while critics argue that the new regulations infringe on due process rights and expressive freedoms.

abcnews.go.com/US/trans-sports-ban-overturned-west-virginia/story
Quick Glance: Court Overturns West Virginia Ban on Transgender in Sports
- A federal appeals court has overturned a ban on transgender individuals participating in sports in West Virginia, citing a violation of Title IX.
- The court ruled that the law cannot lawfully be applied to a 13-year-old girl who has identified as female since the third grade.
- The decision favored the American Civil Liberties Union, its West Virginia chapter, and the LGBTQ advocacy group Lambda Legal, who filed a lawsuit in 2021.
- West Virginia is just one of 24 states with legislation preventing transgender women and girls from competing in specific women's or girls' sports events.

Kansas governor vetoes ban on gender-affirming care for minors and 2 anti-abortion bills
pbs.org/newshour/politics/kansas-governor-vetoes-ban-on-gender-affirming-care-for-minors-and-2-anti-abortion-bills
Quick Glance: Kansas Governor Kelly Blocks Gender Confirmation for Minors
- Kansas Governor Laura Kelly, a Democrat, vetoed a bill on gender confirmation for minors, leading to conflict with Republican state lawmakers.
- The package of measures now goes back to the state Legislature, where the GOP majority is likely to have enough votes to override the governor's veto. Lawmakers are expected to return for a veto session on April 29.
- The proposed measure would ban gender-affirming care for trans and non-binary youth in Kansas, including puberty blockers and surgeries, although surgical procedures on children are rarely performed.
- The law would also allow lawsuits against doctors who would lose their licenses if they provide gender-affirming treatments to minors, and state funds like Medicaid would not be used for such treatments.
