On 50th Anniversary of Title IX, Biden Seeks to Undo Protections for Women

Virginia Allen | Lauren Evans •   June 23, 2022

It’s been 50 years since the U.S. government acted to ensure equal educational opportunities for girls and women through Title IX. 

Since put in place as education amendments in 1972, Title IX has prohibited sex-based discrimination in education programs, including competitive sports. 

Title IX states: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.” 

But the Biden administration is working to undo these very protections by redefining “sex” to include gender identity. If the far left succeeds in changing the definition of sex, Title IX would lose its power to protect women because men who identify as women would have greater access to compete on female sports teams and use women’s bathrooms and locker rooms. 

On today’s edition of “Problematic Women,” Heritage Foundation senior legal fellow Sarah Parshall Perry explains the fight to protect Title IX from this radical agenda. 

Also on today’s show, we still await some big rulings from the Supreme Court, but this week it released one significant decision on school choice. We tell you what you need to know.

Plus, Disney ruins another movie with its radical agenda. And as always, we’ll crown our “Problematic Woman of the Week.”
