U.S. District Judge John Broomes suggested in his decision Tuesday that the Biden administration must now consider whether enforcing the rule remains worth the effort.
TOPEKA, Kan. — Enforcement of a federal rule expanding anti-discrimination protections for LGBT Q+ students has been blocked in four states and a patchwork of places elsewhere by a federal judge in Kansas.
FILE - Misy Sifre, 17, and others protest for transgender rights at the Capitol in Salt Lake City, March 25, 2022. On Tuesday, July 2, 2024, a federal judge in Kansas blocked a federal rule expanding anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ+ students from being enforced in four states, including Utah and a patchwork of places elsewhere across the nation.
Like the other judges, Broomes called the rule arbitrary and concluded that the Department of Education and its secretary, Miguel Cardona, exceeded the authority granted by Title IX. He also concluded that the rule violated the free speech and religious freedom rights of parents and students who reject transgender students’ gender identities and want to espouse those views at school or elsewhere in public.
