NASHVILLE – Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti issued a statement today following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to halt the implementation of the U.S. Department of Education’s new Title IX rule while Tennessee's case against it proceeds. Tennessee has contended that the rule is unlawful and had previously convinced two lower courts to prevent its enactment.
“I am grateful that the Supreme Court of the United States agreed that no part of the Biden administration’s Title IX rule should go into effect while the case proceeds,” said Skrmetti. “This is a win for student privacy, free speech, and the rule of law.”
