Education Department
The U.S. Department of Education (Department) proposes to amend its regulations implementing Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) to set out a standard that would govern a recipient's adoption or application of sex-related criteria that would limit or deny a student's eligibility to participate on a male or female athletic team consistent with their gender identity. The proposed regulation would clarify Title IX's application to such sex- related criteria and the obligation of schools and other recipients of Federal financial assistance from the Department (referred to below as "recipients" or "schools") that adopt or apply such criteria to do so consistent with Title IX's nondiscrimination mandate.
