美国教育部就变性人浴室政策削减了对三个学校区的赠款24M美元, The U.S. Education Department cut $24M in grants to three school districts over transgender bathroom policies, citing Title IX violations.

美国教育部计划在允许变性学生使用符合其性别认同的厕所和更衣室的政策上扣留纽约市、芝加哥和费尔法克斯州各学区2 400万美元的联邦赠款。 The U.S. Department of Education plans to withhold $24 million in federal grants from New York City, Chicago, and Fairfax County school districts over policies allowing transgender students to use restrooms and locker rooms matching their gender identity. 公民权利办公室声称,这些政策违反了第九编,因为允许以性为依据的住宿,而该部认为这一立场构成歧视。 The Office for Civil Rights claims these policies violate Title IX by permitting sex-based accommodations, a stance the department argues constitutes discrimination. 直到9月23日,各区才获准修订其政策,但未能遵守,导致磁性学校项目的资金削减——纽约市1 500万美元,芝加哥580万美元,费尔法克斯县340万美元。 Districts were given until September 23 to revise their policies but failed to comply, resulting in funding cuts for magnet school programs—$15 million for New York City, $5.8 million for Chicago, and $3.4 million for Fairfax County. 该部还要求发表公开声明,反对参加女子体育竞赛的男学生。 The department also demanded public statements opposing male students in female athletic competitions. 芝加哥和纽约市的官员批评这一决定,理由是缺乏证据、程序缺陷以及对损害为得不到充分服务的学生开设的专门课程的关切。 Officials in Chicago and New York City criticized the decision, citing lack of evidence, procedural flaws, and concerns about harming specialized programs for underserved students. 纽约市市长Eric Adams表示, 该市正在考虑采取法律行动, New York City Mayor Eric Adams said the city is considering legal action, noting state law supports current policies.
