Education Department rescinds Title IX protections for LGBTQ students

Original: Education Department formally rescinds Title IX protections for LGBTQ students

The US Department of Education has formally rescinded Title IX guidance that protected LGBTQ students from discrimination, reversing earlier federal interpretation of the sex-discrimination law. The move means transgender and other LGBTQ students lose explicit federal protections in schools, and it is drawing sharp criticism from civil rights groups while being welcomed by opponents of the previous guidance.

Why now: The formal rollback of federal protections directly affects millions of students and schools nationwide.
