The second Trump administration is poised to unwind President Joe Biden’s controversial Title IX regulations that expanded the definition of sex to include gender identity and sexual orientation.

With Linda McMahon tapped by President-elect Donald Trump for education secretary, a reversal could take shape through executive orders, regulatory reforms, and litigation strategies — all aimed at restoring what conservatives view as the original purpose of Title IX. Her role is expected to build on conservative priorities, including reinstating protections for women’s sports, safeguarding parental rights, and addressing broader issues of student safety and accountability.
