Re: Washington State failure to comply with Title IX

Dear Legislator,
The Washington Parents Network is an association of more than 2,700 parents here in Washington state. We maintain that our rights and duties as parents come not from the state legislature but are inalienable rights that come directly from God. We are concerned that, over the last decade, the Washington State legislature has passed many laws that violate our inalienable parental right to care for and be directly involved in making decisions for our minor children – who are not yet developmentally able to comprehend the long term consequences of their own decisions.

I am writing to ask for your help in making the legislature and other state leaders aware of the fact that many Washington state laws and policies are in direct violation of a federal called Title IX intended to give girls equal opportunities in educational and athletic programs that receive federal funds. As just one example, Title IX protects the right of girls to have their own sports leagues in order to create a fair and level playing field for girls to be given equal opportunities to compete and succeed in sports, in education and in life. Our members strongly support Title IX.

Sadly, for many years, Washington state has violated Title IX by allowing biological males to compete in girls sports. Washington state politicians, led by Bob Ferguson and Chris Reykdal have repeatedly and falsely claimed that Washington state was not violating Title IX because, according to their convoluted reasoning, Title IX required allowing biological males to compete in girls sports – even though the clear intent of Title IX was the exact opposite of their claims.

On January 9, 2025, this false interpretation of Title IX was rejected by a federal court order. In addition, the Trump administration has pledged to uphold Title IX and withhold federal funds from any state failing to comply.

Sadly, on February 7, 2025, OSPI issued a 9 page bulletin called Guidance on Returning to the 2020 Title IX Rules which once again fails to comply with Title IX. This places Washington state at risk of losing billions of dollars in federal funds. We ask that you read and share our report and join us in demanding compliance with Title IX.

Recent Important Legal Rules clarifying the meaning of Title IX

In 2024, the Biden administration attempted to rewrite Title IX to transform it from a law protecting girls rights into a law protecting “gender identity” rights – with the term “gender identity” including biological males who wanted to pretend to be girls. This dramatic change in Title IX was litigated by 26 states with numerous federal courts concluding that Title IX was intended to protect girls rights and not gender identity rights.

On August 16, 2024, in an opinion combining the cases, Dept of Education v Louisiana and Cardona v Tennessee, the US Supreme Court ruled unanimously that at least three provisions of the Biden Final Rule were illegal. These were: #1 The requirement that Trans Rights replace Girls Rights. #2 The requirement that Trans males be allowed in Girls Bathrooms & Locker Rooms. #3 Requiring the use of specific pronouns violates the First Amendment rights of teachers & students. Here is a link to their order: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/24a78_f2ah.pdf

Here is a quote from this decision:

One of our primary goals at the Washington Parents Network is to protect children from the harm of the Trans Drug Cult. We were therefore hopeful when, on January 28, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order protecting children from toxic Trans drugs. This order ended federal funding for medical centers who were giving kids toxic Trans drugs. However, in this article, we will explain why the Washington Attorney General might succeed in at least temporarily blocking President Trump’s order - by falsely claiming that Trans Drugs are "safe and effective."

President Trump’s Order states:
“Across the country today, medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions. This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end.”

Whether some know it or not, we are all in a war over the future of our children. On the one side are powerful forces such as greedy Trans Drug corporations - that make billions pushing toxic trans drugs on our kids, the dishonest corporate media and the drug pushing American Medical Association – both of which are controlled by these drug corporations, diabolical billionaires like Bill Gates - who own the drug corporations, arrogant lawyers of the Bar Association, corrupt leaders of the Democratic Party – run by power hungry people like Bob Ferguson, Woke Leaders of the Teacher Unions and their brainwashed followers in the PTA.

On the other side are devoted parents - whose kids are threatened by the Trans Drug Cult, active church members - who are morally opposed to the Trans Cult, Independent locally controlled media – who see the harm of Transgenderism in their communities, Womens Sports advocates – opposed to the Trans Takeover of Girls Sports, conservative Republican Party leaders – who are sensitive to the concerns of parents, alarmed school board members – who see the harm Transgenderism inflicts on students and concerned scientists – who are reporting the biological facts that it is not possible for either sex to be magically transformed into the other sex and that giving kids drugs does not resolve their mental health problems. Thankfully, we can now add the US Supreme Court to the list of groups working to protect our children from the harm of Transgenderism.

In this article, we will review one of the most important turning points in the Trans Drug War being waged against our kids – namely a US Supreme Court hearing that took place on Wednesday, December 4, 2024. The hearing was for the Biden administration to explain why they oppose the Tennesee Trans Drug Ban (as well as the ban in 24 other states) which prevents giving toxic trans drugs to children under the age of 18. The hearing was scheduled for one hour. It went on for 2 hours and 21 minutes.
