Original: UPDATE: U.S. Department of Education ends Title IX protections for LGBTQ+ students

The U.S. Department of Education has moved to end Title IX protections for LGBTQ+ students, according to a report from EdSource. The decision means federal sex-discrimination safeguards under Title IX will no longer be interpreted to cover sexual orientation or gender identity, prompting concern among education advocates and civil rights groups about the impact on students in schools and colleges nationwide.

Why now: A federal policy reversal affecting the rights of LGBTQ+ students is drawing immediate attention from educators and advocacy groups.
