HELENA - Governor Greg Gianforte today applauded President Donald J. Trump and the U.S. Department of Education for protecting women and girls in schools and on college campuses.
Today’s action by the Trump administration returns to the 2020 Title IX Rule enforcing protections on the basis of biological sex in schools and on campuses after the Biden administration revised regulations to undermine women’s right to safe and separate facilities and activities in schools, colleges, and universities.
“For over 50 years, Title IX prevented girls and young women from being discriminated against on the basis of sex in education programs, including in athletic competitions. Shamefully, President Biden attempted to rewrite these protections to appease the far-left flank of his party,” Gov. Gianforte said. “Thanks to the swift action of President Trump, we’re restoring equal opportunity for all Americans, protecting women and girls and their right to safe and separate facilities and activities in their schools.”
