Last Friday, the Biden administration released its new Title IX regulations. The new regulations contain many dangerous elements, including a redefinition of biological “sex,” changing a word previously understood to mean “male and female” to now include the category of gender identity. Under the new regulations, men who identify as women must be treated as women under the federal law, in almost every area of public life.
According to Alliance Defending Freedom:
“The Biden administration’s radical redefinition of sex turns back the clock on equal opportunity for women, threatens student safety and privacy, and undermines fairness in women’s sports. It is a slap in the face to women and girls who have fought long and hard for equal opportunities. The administration continues to ignore biological reality, science, and commonsense, and women are suffering as a result. The administration’s new regulation will have devastating consequences on the future of women’s sports, student privacy, and parental rights.”
At MFI, we have been advocating against the proposed changes to Title IX since 2022, when we submitted this public comment. More recently, as Massachusetts has been home to clear-cut examples of girls being harmed when forced to compete against biological males, we launched a Save Girls Sports petition. This petition will be sent to the MIAA, demanding that they make reasonable changes to their existing policies in order to protect female athletes from physical danger or lost opportunities at the hands of larger, stronger males.
We think that protecting women and girls is crucial, but the Biden administration clearly has other priorities.
We strongly oppose Biden’s new regulations, which put activist ideologies over the best interests of women and girls, college students, and ultimately all Americans. Between now and August 1st when the new regulations take effect, we will keep you updated on new developments related to this egregious, anti-Christian, anti-science government overreach.
For now, please consider supporting MFI as we continue to advocate for common-sense policies that will protect women and girls and honor the biblical definition of male and female.
For our families,
The MFI Team
