KEY TAKEAWAYS
-The result of the Title IX changes effectively would force all schools that receive federal funding to conform to a radical version of gender ideology, or else.
-The new regulations also would empower K-12 schools to encourage students to go through a gender transition without parental consent.
-A law designed to increase access to sports for girls and women could be transformed to mandate that men be allowed to invade and derail their genuine competitions.

The result of the Title IX changes effectively would force all schools that receive federal funding—from K-12 schools to colleges and universities—to conform to a radical version of gender ideology, or else.
Here’s how Sarah Parshall Perry, a legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation, parent organization of The Daily Signal, describes the effect of the rule change:
Any K–12 school or institution of higher education that receives federal funding would have to open its bathrooms, locker rooms, housing accommodations, sports teams, and any other sex-separated educational program or offering to the opposite sex, if those individuals simply claim to be female.
The Biden administration made it clear that it intends to go after schools that don’t comply.
