LINCOLN Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen on Friday announced he is joining a
handful of states in planning to defy new Title IX rules from the Biden
administration set to take effect in August.
Pillen, in a Friday news release, said the rewrite of Title IX is an
affront to the common sense idea that men do not belong in womens only
spaces and is a direct attack on the Womens Bill of Rights that he
established by executive order last August. Under that order, state
agencies, boards and commissions must define someones sex as male or
female at birth.
Title IX, a 1972 rule, prohibits sex discrimination in educational
programs that receive federal funding. The changes explicitly protect
gender identity and sexual orientation.
Pillen on Friday said Nebraska must fight against radical gender ideology
and vigorously protect the rights of Nebraska women and girls.
Protecting our kids and womens athletics is my duty, Pillen said in a
statement. The presidents new rules threaten the safety of women and
their right to participate in womens sports. Nebraska will not comply.
Under Pillens Womens Bill of Rights, a female is defined as someone
whose biological reproductive system is developed to produce ova; a male
is someone whose biological reproductive system is developed to fertilize
the ova of a female.
At least 15 states are suing over the final Title IX rule, but not
Nebraska. Governors and state education chiefs in at least six states
Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Montana, South Carolina and Oklahoma have
also directed districts to defy the rule.
The U.S. Department of Education has said states not in compliance with
Title IX risk losing federal funding.
The revised Title IX guidelines, to which the U.S. Department of Education
has given final approval, are scheduled to take effect Aug. 1.
LGBTQ students who face discrimination would be entitled to a response
from their school under Title IX, allowing recourse from the federal
government when schools do not do so.
The revisions also reverse many changes led by former Education Secretary
Betsy DeVos that added new protections for students accused of sexual
misconduct, which currently require such conduct to be severe, pervasive
and objectively offensive.
Colleges will also not be required to hold live hearings to allow students
to cross-examine one another through representatives.
The new regulations do not include a planned provision to prevent schools
from categorically banning transgender student-athletes from sporting
teams.
Nebraska lawmakers fell two votes short of advancing legislation this year
that would have done just that. The introducer, State Sen. Kathleen Kauth
of Omaha, has said she intends to try again next year, a plan that she has
said could involve Pillens Womens Bill of Rights.
--
We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that
stupid people won't be offended.
Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem. It has none.
No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.
Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.
Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.
President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed
dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
