Florida will fight Biden’s Title IX rule change, calls it ‘attempt to gaslight the country’

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida plans to fight the U.S. Department of Education’s new Title IX rules that were released last week.

In a letter to superintendents obtained by Florida’s Voice, Education Commissioner Manny Diaz Jr. said the rule will not take effect until Aug. 1, and that the state “will fight this.”

“At Governor Ron DeSantis’ direction, no educational institution should begin implementing any changes,” the letter stated.

The letter noted the U.S. Department of Education released rulemaking changes to the regulations implementing Title IX on April 19.
