[QUOTE="hedrick, post: 75539183, member: 239032"] Here's a review of his likely policies: [URL='https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/13/us/politics/biden-education-devos.html']https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/13/us/politics/biden-education-devos.html. [/URL]The one that probably concerns you is that he will surely renew the guidance on treatment of Transgender students. But remember, this isn't legislation, which he can't do. It's warning people of what the law says. Under Obama you could argue that there was no basis for the guidance, and so he was making a controversial interpretation of the Law. But now, the conservative Supreme Court has interpreted anti-discrimination laws in employment as applying to LGBT. It's reasonable to assume that they would rea the laws in education the same way. So the guidance will simply be pointing out what the Court has already said. Your argument isn't with Biden, but with the Supreme Court and for that matter, the majority of the American people. It's unlikely that he will dictate what is to be taught about LGBT. Obama didn't, and I don't think Biden is as aggressive in that area. Teaching content is clearly a State matter. [/QUOTE]
