The Trump administration announced the cancellation of a recent Title IX guidance from the Biden administration which would have subjected college athlete payments to federal rules. This move aligns with Trump’s recent executive order banning transgender women athletes from competing in women's sports, emphasizing the use of Title IX to reinforce traditional gender protections in athletics. Amidst these changes, legal challenges persist, including a lawsuit from two transgender high school girls opposing the ban. They aim to expand their case nationwide, highlighting ongoing debates over fairness and inclusion in sports alongside the renewed focus on athlete compensation.
