The Biden administration last month announced a revamping of Title IX rules ostensibly intended to protect transgender college students.
President Joe Biden's administration released a finalized rule in April that extends Title IX protection to encompass "Sexual orientation" and "Gender identity," but it does not address transgender athletes.
Cardona refused to answer the questions from Republican Utah Rep. Burgess Owens, saying he would not comment on rules related to athletics that his department has not yet proposed.
Owens pressed Cardona for a "Yes or no" answer but the secretary declined to provide one, saying he would "Be happy" to discuss Title IX. "If your daughter was reported, she felt uncomfortable in a boy's presence in a bathroom or locker room, would that be considered by your administration to be discrimination or bigotry?" Owns followed up.
Cardona again declined to provide a "Yes or no" answer as Owens pressed him.
The lawsuit says: The Biden administration's redefinition of the word "Sex" in Title IX forces schools across the country to embrace a controversial gender ideology that harms children-including the very children it claims to help.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in a press conference the Sunshine State is "Not going to let Joe Biden try to inject men into women's activities" and that the state is "Not going to let Joe Biden abuse his constitutional authority to try to impose these policies on us here in Florida."
