Judge blocks Biden admin's transgender school bathroom rule, athletes
Fox News
Judge Charles Atchley Jr. has struck down a directive from the Biden administration requiring schools to allow transgender students to use the bathroom and join sports teams of their chosen gender.
The directive was blocked by Judge Charles Atchley Jr. of the Eastern District of Tennessee, a Trump appointee, after a coalition of 20 Republican attorneys general sued last year, Reuters reported.
The plaintiffs argued the federal directive clashed with state laws and prevented states from enforcing their own laws that banned transgender school bathroom use.
