Moms for Liberty Clause Blocks Title IX Rewrite from Taking Effect in Thousands of Schools

The movement against President Joe Biden’s Title IX rewrite that allows biological men into private women’s spaces has won a significant court victory. Moms for Liberty (M4L), a conservative group that advocates for parental rights, was one of the many that filed a federal lawsuit against the Department of Education (DOE) in order to halt the new Title IX rule from taking effect. As a result, a federal judge ordered that the rewrite would be blocked from any school with a M4L parent.

A 63-page list was submitted last week to the Kansas District Court by Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach (R) containing K-12 schools with a M4L parent. The number added up to over 2,000 schools, which spanned across 45 states. And given that more parents are joining M4L, there’s a chance more schools could be added to the list. M4L posted on X that this was not only a “huge win,” but a means of protecting children “from Biden’s Title IX mandates on gender ideology.”

Some users responded to the post, writing, “Such good news for America’s families!” Another comment read, “You are total rock stars!!!! Thank you a million times!!!” But it appears M4L is not the only group helping parents protect their children from Biden’s Title IX rewrite. On July 2, U.S. District Judge John Broomes established a temporary injunction to Kansas, Alaska, Utah, and Wyoming ­­— all of which are states challenging the new Title IX rule. And in addition to schools with M4L parents, this injunction also applies to schools with “at least one student who belongs to Young America’s Foundation or Female Athletes United.”

According to The Washington Times, the DOE “urged the court earlier this month to limit the scope of the injunction to members of the organization as of the court filing or injunction,” but in response, Broomes said this was “a problem of DoE’s own making.” He then refused the request. “As the court suggested in its prior order,” Broomes stated, “Congress gave DOE the authority to postpone the effective date of the Final Rule pending judicial review. Maybe DOE should use that authority.”

In addition to these thousands of schools now exempt from the new rule are the 21 other states that have had federal judges block Biden’s rewrite already. In response to all this, Meg Kilgannon, Family Research Council’s senior fellow for Education Studies, commented to The Washington Stand, “Parents across the country owe a debt of gratitude to Moms for Liberty for filing this lawsuit.”
