[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone point me to a source that says this only affects schools that accept federal funding? I cannot find this.[/quote]

Uh, read 1) the 14th Amendment to the Constitution and 2) the Courts opinion yesterday.  [/quote]

I will take pity on PP. Here is a helpful quote from Gorsuch’s concurrence:

“The Equal Protection Clause reads: “No State shall . . . deny to any person within its jurisdic- tion the equal protection of the laws.” Amdt. 14, §1. That such differently worded provisions should mean the same thing is implausible on its face.
Consider just some of the obvious differences. The Equal Protection Clause operates on States. It does not purport to regulate the conduct of private parties. By contrast, Title VI applies to recipients of federal funds—covering not just many state actors, but many private actors too. In this way, Title VI reaches entities and organizations that the Equal Protection Clause does not.”[/quote]

Thank you for your helpful summary, PP! Legal jargon is just not my forte. Makes my eyes glaze over. If you ever have a lambda calculus question, I am your girl, and the rude PP can look it up herself.  :D [/quote]

😆 I’m a lawyer and it makes my eyes glaze over too. I have no idea what lambda calculus is so kudos to you [/quote]
