Credit: SUNGYOON/Adobe Stock 'What Is the Driving Force Behind a Change to Such a Successful and Inclusive Rule?': Federal Judge Blocks New Title IX Rules in Some States
"Because a circuit split exists and there is no binding federal jurisprudence on this issue, the court must make its own interpretation as to the applicability of Bostock to Title IX ... the court finds that Bostock does not apply to Title IX," U.S. District Judge Terry A. Doughty said.

A federal judge in Louisiana issued a temporary injunction Thursday to several states challenging the Biden administration's finalized Title IX rule that adds additional protections for LGBTQ+ students based on their gender identity or sexual orientation.
U.S. District Judge Terry A. Doughty of the Western District of Louisiana authored the opinion in State of Louisiana v. U.S. Department of Education, which was filed against the Department of Education, along with its secretary, Miguel Cardona, among other federal agencies and officials. Republican-led states like Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana and Idaho sought to prevent some of the new regulations from going into effect Aug. 1. It would require students to be allowed access to bathrooms and locker rooms based on their gender identity, prohibit schools from requiring medical documentation validating the student's gender identity, and require schools to use a student's preferred pronouns, among other things.
