A coalition of transgender and “nonbinary” legislators have voiced their concerns over President Joe Biden’s proposed changes to Title IX, which would affect transgender students’ participation in school sports.

In an April 10 letter to Biden, the 14 legislators from the states of Colorado, Delaware, Massachusetts, Montana, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and Vermont said they were writing to express their concerns regarding the Biden administration’s recently unveiled proposed change to the Title IX rule, a policy designed to protect people from discrimination based on sex in schools.
