DeSantis: Florida ‘will not comply’ with new Biden Title IX rules
The Hill ^ | 04/25/2024 | TARA SUTER

Posted on 04/25/2024 12:25:04 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said Thursday his state “will not comply” with recently unveiled changes to Title IX by the Biden administration.

“Florida rejects [President Biden’s] attempt to rewrite Title IX,” DeSantis said in a video posted to the social platform X. “We will not comply, and we will fight back.”

“We are not gonna let Joe Biden try to inject men into women’s activities,” DeSantis continued. “We are not gonna let Joe Biden undermine the rights of parents, and we are not gonna let Joe Biden abuse his constitutional authority to try to impose these policies on us here in Florida.”

The Biden administration on Friday unveiled a final set of changes to Title IX that add protections for transgender students to the federal civil rights law on sex-based discrimination. The changes will take effect in early August.

No mentally ill men in women's sports.

Absolutely. Why is there only ONE Republican governor with the balls to do what De Santis does? The rest roll over and comply. They are probably all still wearing masks, too.

Well done sir. He may be a snake in the grass at the Federal level but the country could use more Govenors like him.

DeSantis deserves a lot of credit for standing up to Brandon’s garbage.

No doubt! So glad DeSantis did this right off the bat - this essentiallyprotects everybody EXCEPT real, biological women. And it was done by Biden on his lonesome, just going out and altering legislation. Why bother to have a legislature if the president simply gets to completely overturn a law that it has passed?

Yes, he does. More Red state governors need to follow in his tracks.

Excellent! When DeSantis does things like this, it emboldens other governors to follow suit.

Congress over seas this law. They can file suit to stop this.

Title IX is Congressional law. What Biden is doing is trying to invent a rule to bypass Title IX and bypass the protection of women under Title IX.

Similar responses may require similar State constitutions. But, yes, it would be great if they all could/would do this.

If Trump can’t win, no one can. The deep state has time and many tentacles growing more each day, ready for anything and with no ‘repercussions’.

Those who rule, make the rules!

I do appreciate DeSantis’ ba!!s but are they for real or?

Sorry to say but if anything happens to DT, the left will be even more embolden.
DAMMIT! Just my piZZed off 2¢ worth day.

DeSantis has not been afraid to lead on such issues knowing full-well that it will come back in 2028 against him
