Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit on April 29 against the Biden administration over a new rule that expands Title IX to include sexual discrimination based on sex stereotypes, sex characteristics, sexual orientation, and gender identity.

The lawsuit argues that the new rule “contorts protections for women” by forcing schools to allow males identifying as women to enter female-only spaces, such as restrooms and locker rooms, and to allow men to join female-only organizations.
