Trump Admin Repeals Biden-Era Title IX LGBTQ Rule
Newsmax ^ | 09/28/2026 | Newsmax

Education Secretary Linda McMahon on Monday formally rescinded the Biden administration's Title IX regulations expanding sex-discrimination protection to include gender identity and sexual orientation.

The move restores rules adopted during President Donald Trump's first term.

The final regulation, expected to be published Tuesday, removes the Biden-era rule from the federal regulatory code after a federal court struck it down and reinstates the Trump administration's 2020 framework governing how schools handle sexual-misconduct allegations.

The move "clears the Biden Administration's illegal rewrite of Title IX" and restores the previous rule's language, McMahon said in a statement.

"Thanks to today's action, the published Title IX regulations faithfully reflect court orders and Congressional intent — reducing confusion for parents, students, and educational institutions," she said, The Hill reported.

"It was boys in boys sports and girls in girls sports, and now the Biden rules and regulations are being rescinded," McMahon said.

I’m pretty sure that it is illegal (and an impeachable offense) for Trump to repeal a Biden rule. No doubt a Federal judge with a name I cannot pronounce will so rule.

Look at the monstrosity called the Department of “Education:”

The U.S. Department of Education’s budget for FY 2024 was $268.4 billion, with the majority allocated to student aid and K-12 programs.
Overview of the Budget

In fiscal year 2024, the Department of Education (ED) spent $268.4 billion, representing 4% of total federal spending, despite employing only 0.2% of the federal workforce, highlighting its role primarily as a pass-through agency for grants and loans rather than direct service delivery (Lingobright) lingobright.comlingobright.com. The budget has grown significantly over time, increasing 371.6% in inflation-adjusted terms from 1980 to 2024, outpacing overall federal spending growth of 193.7% lingobright.comlingobright.com.
Major Allocations

Office of Federal Student Aid: $160.7 billion (60% of the total budget), covering federal student loans, Pell Grants ($34.7 billion), and work-study programs lingobright.comlingobright.com.
K-12 Education: Approximately $49 billion, distributed to states, local governments, and tribal authorities lingobright.comlingobright.com.
Title I Funding: $18.6 billion to support schools in low-income communities, a $200 million increase from 2023 levels GovInfoGovInfo.
Academic Acceleration and Achievement Grants: $8 billion in mandatory funding to close opportunity and achievement gaps, including tutoring and extended learning programs GovInfoGovInfo.
Preschool Expansion: New mandatory funding proposals for federal-state partnerships to provide free, high-quality preschool for four-year-olds, with potential expansion to three-year-olds

Abolish this agency now!

Great move!

For those wondering why this wasn't done earlier, there are certain administrative steps that have to happen before a rule can be formally instituted or repealed, including a mandatory statutory "notice and comment" period. Can't be done overnight.

I used to call “gays” (and by extension, LBGTQs) “squeaks”!

And I used to say that they went “squeak squeak”!
