Utah lawmakers voted to abide by a state law requiring students to use the restroom corresponding to their biological sex, ignoring President Joe Biden’s new Title IX rule that allows transgender students to use the restroom of their choice. 

Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT) called the legislature into a special session on Wednesday to determine if the state would use the Utah Constitutional Sovereignty Act to assert state law over federal law. The legislature passed two resolutions affirming the state’s right to bypass the Title IX regulations.
