Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares has referred Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) to the U.S. Department of Justice and the Department of Education following an investigation into a locker room incident at Stone Bridge High School.
Three male students reported discomfort when a biologically female student, identifying as male, entered the boys' locker room and recorded them changing. Subsequently, the school district initiated sexual harassment investigations against the boys.

He emphasized that Title IX should not be used to suppress free speech or religious convictions. Click here to read more.
