AG Miyares directs VCU, UVA to halt medical care for minors' gender transition

  • VCU says it has "suspended gender-affirming medication and gender-affirming surgical procedures for those under 19 years old in response to clear guidance from the state."

The article from Richmond.com discusses Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares' involvement in a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Education's new Title IX regulations. These regulations expand protections to include gender identity, allowing transgender students to use facilities and participate in sports consistent with their gender identity. Miyares, along with other Republican-led states, argues that these changes infringe on states' rights and could lead to the loss of federal funding for non-compliance. The lawsuit claims that the new rules would force schools to permit transgender girls to compete in girls' sports, potentially affecting the fairness of athletic competitions. Additionally, the article mentions that Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and the University of Virginia (UVA) have policies in place that align with these new federal guidelines, supporting transgender students' rights to use facilities matching their gender identity. The contention revolves around the balance between federal mandates and state autonomy, as well as the implications for educational institutions and student athletes.
