Can Utah legally ignore Biden’s Title IX expansion aimed at protecting trans students?

State lawmakers are using a bill they passed earlier this year giving themselves permission to disregard federal laws and regulations.

(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) East High school students gather in front of the school during a walkout on Friday, April 15, 2022, to protest a law banning transgender girls from participating in female school sports. Utah lawmakers voted Wednesday to ignore new federal Title IX rules that would stop schools from enforcing such restrictions on transgender students.
