(WWJ) – Earlier this month the Biden administration proposed a rule change to Title IX that would add protections for transgender athletes.
The proposed rule change would prohibit schools from issuing a blanket ban to keep transgender student-athletes from competing on sports teams that align with their gender identity, rather than their assigned sex at birth. Schools would be able to make decisions on a case-by-case basis, given a number of factors.
But WWJ’s Brian Fisher learns on a new Daily J podcast, people on both sides of the issue have been critical of the proposed rule. He explores whether the proposed change to Title IX would help or hurt transgender athletes and the school sports they want to participate in.
