Background:
The Problem:
This means that schools would have to open women’s/girls’ bathrooms and other facilities to individuals just because they claim to be female.
This sacrifices the safety and privacy of women and girls to carry out a “woke” policy agenda.
The proposal would dramatically expand what conduct is prohibited. Not using someone’s “preferred pronouns” or making an innocent comment that happens to offend someone could be considered “harassment.” To avoid losing federal funding, schools will interpret this prohibition very broadly–running afoul of the First Amendment and chilling interactions among students and employees.
The proposal also undoes the Trump administration’s Title IX due process requirements for students and employees accused of sexual assault or harassment.
- Under the Biden administration’s proposal, those accused would not have the right to a live hearing and cross-examination of witnesses.
- The proposal would also allow a single person to both investigate and adjudicate the allegations of sexual assault or harassment–that is, act as both prosecutor and judge.
Only Congress–elected to represent the people–can make such sweeping policy determinations involving such sensitive issues and trade-offs. Unless and until Congress acts, the Biden administration should leave Title IX alone.
