The Trump administration has finalized a regulation restoring the first Trump administration’s Title IX rules for handling sexual misconduct complaints at schools and colleges, formally repealing the Biden-era regulation after federal courts vacated it. The restored rules require colleges to use formal processes for sexual misconduct complaints, including courtroom-style hearings where representatives for complainants and accused students can call witnesses, challenge credibility, and assess evidence, while also allowing schools to apply a higher standard of proof than under Obama-era guidance. The regulation stops short of formally defining “sex” under Title IX as biological sex, although the Education Department said it is enforcing the law on that basis and has separate regulatory plans addressing the definition. Education Secretary Linda McMahon said the change provides clarity for students, parents, and institutions, while advocates for sexual misconduct survivors criticized the policy as creating additional barriers to reporting and weakening protections. The regulation could also face legal challenges because the department did not use the notice-and-comment process employed during previous revisions of Title IX rules.

The Trump administration is seeking to cancel nearly $100m in congressionally approved education funding as part of an $810m package of “pocket rescissions.” The proposed education cuts include $70m from International and Foreign Language Education and $25m from programs supporting migratory students pursuing high school equivalency credentials and higher education. The administration has characterized the targeted spending as wasteful, while lawmakers from both parties have criticized the rescission process, with Senate Appropriations Committee chair Susan Collins (R-ME) describing it as illegal. The affected migrant education programs have already experienced substantial reductions, falling from 120 programs serving 5,000 students across 20 states in 2024 to 45 programs serving fewer than 2,000 students annually in 12 states. The HEP-CAMP Association estimates the latest funding reduction could affect services for another 1,650 students. International and Foreign Language Education has also faced previous funding disruption. The Government Accountability Office has previously deemed pocket rescissions illegal.
