The US Education Department ruled that Denver Public Schools violated Title IX by allowing all-gender bathrooms and letting students use bathrooms aligning with their gender identity. This followed an investigation into East High School, marking a shift from the Biden administration's approach. The department wants the school to revert to gender-specific bathrooms and use biological sex definitions in Title IX policies. Denver schools are reviewing their options. This action is part of the Trump administration's broader push against transgender-inclusive policies in schools, with similar investigations underway in multiple states.
