A federal judge from Texas has blocked an initiative by the Biden administration aimed at expanding anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ+ students.

Concretely, judge Reed O'Connor said the government doesn't have the authority to implement such a decision, adding that it intends to push "an agenda wholly divorced from the text, structure, and contemporary context of Title IX."
