Donald Trump Rolls Back Obama Transgender Bathroom Rules

"It's incumbent upon us to actually follow the law and to recognize that Title IX never talked about this," he said.

Under Obama, those same departments issued the guidance in several pieces as an interpretation of Title IX, which prohibits sex discrimination in education. Speaking with reporters on Wednesday, White House press secretary Sean Spicer echoed the argument that such an interpretation of Title IX is flawed. Advocates called that notion "outrageous," saying that Title IX should continue to protect transgender students — even if they are no longer aided by the feds in pursuing enforcement actions.
