The U.S. Department of Education rescinded the Biden administration’s expanded Title IX regulations and reinstated the Trump-era rules established in 2020.
Under the previous Biden administration rule, Title IX protections were expanded to include protections based on gender identity and sexual orientation. However, following subsequent legal challenges, court rulings, and executive actions, the Department of Education reverted to the 2020 Trump-era framework. This reinstated framework applies a narrower definition of sex-based discrimination and harassment, defining sex strictly as sex assigned at birth, and alters the formal procedures for investigating and handling Title IX complaints in educational institutions.
