Policy Pulse: How Gender Ideology Undermines Title IX

Subscribe to Heard at HeritageSubscribe

In 1972, Congress passed Title IX of the Education Amendments, heralding a new age of equal opportunities for females in academics and athletics. After five decades of progress for women in education, Title IX’s legacy is endangered by a new gender ideology that makes being female a matter of self-identification rather than biological reality.

This new ideology is erasing women’s opportunities in athletics and transforming single-sex spaces into mixed-sex spaces, depriving both males and females of their right to privacy. The Biden Administration is making aggressive attempts to enshrine this ideology in public schools, and the Supreme Court has declined to clarify that biology matters in school settings. These policies erase the progress of women and girls, and parents are now pushing back.

Policy professionals won’t want to miss this crucial discussion on Title IX and the battle for biological reality in American schools.
