Washington, D.C. – Today, Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee (CWALAC), the nation’s largest public policy women’s organization, praised the United States Supreme Court for blocking implementation of the Biden Administration’s final Title IX Rule. The high court reinforced two separate orders from federal courts in Kentucky and Louisiana that blocked the Department of Education from enforcing the rule across 10 states. The Biden Administration’s Rule removed federal protections “on the basis of sex” that have safeguarded women’s rights and enabled female students to excel in education and sports under federal civil rights law for 52 years.

Under the Administration’s radical rewrite of Title IX, female students will no longer have federal protection against sex discrimination in educational activities including athletics. Women and girls lose their rights to equality of opportunity because males self-identifying as women are given new rights to take their place, use their bathrooms and locker rooms, and play on their sports teams.  

“We applaud the Supreme Court’s decision on this Rule, but the fight has just begun over this insidious gender agenda that would erase our status as women and girls for the new ‘heroes’ of the day, men who claim to be women,” said Penny Nance, CEO and President of CWALAC. “Shame on Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and all those feminists around them who claim to care about women’s rights! Their attempt to abolish more than 52 years of female opportunity and achievement is appalling!

“According to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the world must make way for males to steal our status, our safe spaces, and even our gold medals.  

“This Rule has nothing to do with fairness and equal opportunity for women. It has everything to do with pleasing a very small fringe minority that Vice President Harris is counting on to vote for her in November.”

“Men are the new women,” said Doreen Denny, CWALAC Senior Advisor. “Transgender identity is the new sex. Males like Lia Thomas declaring ‘womanhood’ have the upper hand in civil rights claims under this Biden rule. A male’s feminine feelings and desires are prioritized over any psychological turmoil foisted on female students and athletes suffering the injustice.The disadvantage and harm goes one way: female students are being assaulted in school restrooms; female athletes are forced to surrender their privacy in the locker rooms and have their opportunities and achievements stolen in their own sports.”
