On January 9, 2025, a federal district court in Kentucky ruled that the 2024 Title IX Final Rule and Regulations were unconstitutional and exceeded the U.S. Department of Education’s authority under Title IX. The Court vacated the 2024 Title IX Final Rule and Regulations in their entirety. The 2024 Title IX Regulations are now “off the books.” This means that the U.S. Department of Education is precluded from enforcing them at any educational institution in the nation and schools should revert to the “status quo” that existed prior to the effective date of the 2024 Title IX Regulations (i.e., the 2020 Title IX Regulations). YM&C will continue to track Title IX developments and provide you with updates.
