Executive order post.
Shit's about to pop off, but we don't know exactly what the orders are yet. I figure we could collect them in a single post and discuss as they come out.

You're viewing a single thread.
DEFENDING WOMEN FROM GENDER IDEOLOGY EXTREMISM AND RESTORING BIOLOGICAL TRUTH TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT(4)(f) is going to be interesting. Even right wing courts don't like their toes being stepped on.
I don't see a section 4 f, are you talking about the whole order?
My bad, sec. 3
(f) The prior Administration argued that the Supreme Court’s decision in Bostock v. Clayton County (2020), which addressed Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, requires gender identity-based access to single-sex spaces under, for example, Title IX of the Educational Amendments Act. This position is legally untenable and has harmed women. The Attorney General shall therefore immediately issue guidance to agencies to correct the misapplication of the Supreme Court’s decision in Bostock v. Clayton County (2020) to sex-based distinctions in agency activities. In addition, the Attorney General shall issue guidance and assist agencies in protecting sex-based distinctions, which are explicitly permitted under Constitutional and statutory precedent.
Ah, all good. I did think that was interesting, is he trying to overrule the court on this? Am I understanding correctly?
To my understanding, yes, that is correct
I hope this causes a rift between the executive and the courts tbh.
