The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky is now the second court to issue an injunction preventing the enforcement of the Biden administration’s Title IX rules that add additional protections for LGBTQ+ students, which were set to take effect in just over a month.  

U.S. District Chief Judge Danny C. Reeves of the Eastern District of Kentucky issued the 93-page opinion Monday in the matter of State of Tennessee v. Cardona, holding that the department redefining “sex” to include gender identity wreaks havoc on Title IX and produces results that Congress could not have intended.
