STATEMENT RELEASE:

MILLS APPLAUDS COURT’S BLOCKING OF BIDEN ADMINISTRATION’S TITLE IX RULE CHANGE

FRANKFORT, KY (June 17, 2024) – The following is a statement from Sen. Robby Mills, R-Henderson, regarding the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky’s injunction on the United States Department of Education’s unconstitutional Title IX rule change. 

“I applaud Chief Judge Reeves and the Eastern District of Kentucky for reining in excessive and capricious federal government overreach, in this case, by President Biden’s U.S. Department of Education.

“As the sponsor of the 'Save Women’s Sports Act,' I view today’s ruling as further affirmation of the necessity of legislation championed by the Republican supermajorities in the Kentucky General Assembly and defended by our Republican attorney general.

“I hope the courts will continue to uphold this commonsense precedent.”
