On Thursday evening, news dropped that the Biden Administration is proposing new regulations that would prohibit schools from enforcing bans on trans-identifying males in girls’ sports, Daily Wire reports.
Manny Diaz Jr., Commissioner of Education for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, responded to the news, promising that such regulations would never fly in the Sunshine State.
“This is a sad, pathetic attempt from a completely inept administration to force their woke worldview on the rest of us,” Diaz said. “Since Joe Biden can’t get Congress or the Supreme Court to rubberstamp his radical gender ideology, he’s resorted to bullying America’s students through the federal bureaucracy. Good luck – this won’t fly in Florida.”
“We will never allow boys to play in girls’ sports,” he continued. “We will fight this overreach tooth and nail. And we will stop at nothing to uphold the protections afforded women under Title IX.”

From The Daily Wire:
The Biden administration’s education department’s Title IX rules state that schools that receive federal funding may not ban biological males in girls’ sports wholesale, but they may exclude them on a case-by-case basis.
“The proposed rule … recognizes that in some instances, particularly in competitive high school and college athletic environments, some schools may adopt policies that limit transgender students’ participation,” the education department said.
