• Female athletes rally in DC to garner support for protecting women in sports. Numerous female athletes and coaches are in Washington, D.C. this week for a series of events surrounding the Our Bodies, Our Sports “Take Back Title IX” Summer 2024 Bus Tour organized by a coalition of women’s rights groups, including the Independent Women’s Forum. The coast-to-coast tour is protesting the push for transgender athletes in women’s sports and the Biden administration’s rewriting of Title IX. Title IX, the landmark federal civil rights law enacted in 1972, prohibits sex-based harassment in any education programs and activities that receive federal funding. The new Biden administration regulations, which take effect Aug. 1, would protect against discrimination based on sex stereotypes, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex characteristics. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is hosting a round table discussion on Wednesday afternoon with Gaines, former U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, the Independent Women’s Forum’s Heather Higgins, and Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC), who is chairwoman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee, in honor of this week’s 52nd anniversary of Title IX.
