On June 23, the Department of Education issued a proposed rulemaking that would alter obligations to address sex discrimination that affects employees and students, including sexual harassment, pregnancy discrimination, and discrimination based on sexual orientation and/or gender identity. The proposed rules apply to all entities that are subject to Title IX regulation, including all elementary, secondary, and post-secondary educational institutions that receive federal funding.

Join Brigid Harrington, Chelsie Vokes and Aimee Bierman to discuss how the proposed regulations:

• Apply to all forms of sex discrimination
• Eliminate the jurisdictional limitations of the 2020 regulations
• Broaden the types of employees that must report allegations of sex discrimination
• Outline different requirements for grievance processes that apply to claims involving students versus employees
• Eliminate the requirement that Title IX adjudications include a live hearing
• Present an opportunity for educational institutions to consolidate policies
