US EditionEducation Department investigating state agencies, 15 schools over transgender athletes policies
The U.S. Department of Education investigates 18 entities for alleged sex discrimination under Title IX related to transgender student athletes in 10 states, officials said.
- On Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights announced Title IX investigations into policies allowing students who identify as transgender to compete based on gender identity, not biological sex.
- The probes followed complaints filed with OCR asserting discrimination based on sex by allowing sports participation by gender identity, following recent U.S. Supreme Court oral arguments.
- The probe list includes 15 K-12 districts plus one university and two state education departments, naming Foxboro Public Schools, Sultan School District, New York City Department of Education, and University of Nevada, Reno.
- Potential enforcement actions include rescinding federal funding, as OCR has previously highlighted, citing a Maine investigation that once put over 15 million dollars at risk, Kimberly Richey said.
- Renewed federal enforcement follows prior DOJ referrals and funding threats after Office for Civil Rights employees were indefinitely reinstated last month, signaling heightened oversight of states previously investigated.
