CHEYENNE – On Thursday, June 20, Superintendent Megan Degenfelder joined her counterparts from several states including Florida, Louisiana, and Montana, at an event in Washington D.C. to oppose the Biden Administration’s new Title IX rules.
The Heritage Foundation organized the group of state education officials, state attorneys general and solicitors general, parental rights advocates, and student-athletes to speak on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court to respond to the rule changes that will negatively impact millions of Americans.

“These rules are dangerous. They physically endanger biological females and infringe upon the constitutional rights of students and teachers by attacking due process, freedom of speech, and freedom of religion. Our efforts to push back are already showing promising results with federal courts in Kentucky and Louisiana temporarily blocking the rules. We must continue the fight, it is long from over.”
Superintendent Degenfelder was joined by Florida Commissioner Manny Diaz; Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill; Louisiana Superintendent Cade Brumley; Montana Solicitor General Christian Corrigan; Montana Superintendent Elsie Arntzen; Paula Scanlan, Student Athlete; Lainey Armistead, Former West Virginia Collegiate Athlete; Rachel Rouleau, Alliance Defending Freedom; Kim Hermann, Southeastern Legal Foundation; Sarah Parshall Perry, The Heritage Foundation; Lindsey Burke, The Heritage Foundation; and Tiffany Justice, Moms for Liberty.
Degenfelder recently announced that Wyoming will join a lawsuit opposing the rules and has provided guidance that Wyoming schools should continue under their current Title IX policies and practices.
Degenfelder is a former high school and college athlete and coaches the University of Wyoming Women’s Rugby Team.
