A long-awaited policy that mandates how schools respond to sexual misconduct and codifies protections for transgender students is being reviewed by the White House for final approval.
The Education Department, which has been under pressure from Democrats and civil rights groups to finish its final Title IX rule, sent the regulation to the Office of Management and Budget on Friday, according to its website — a key procedural step before it can be made public.
The highly anticipated regulation is expected to unravel much of former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos’ Title IX rule, a defining aspect of her tenure. Her rule, which took effect in August 2020, narrowed the definition of sexual harassment and directed schools to conduct live hearings with cross-examination for sexual misconduct investigations.
