Defend Title IX to protect girls in sports and private spaces
Days before Wisconsin’s November 3 election, Moms for Liberty urged voters to defend Title IX but named no specific race or ballot measure.
Protecting girls means defending Title IX, and Moms for Liberty put that call before voters on October 29, 20261.
Moms for Liberty’s original post appears here1.
In states across the country, like Wisconsin, Title IX is on the ballot. Vote to protect our girls, and defend Title IX1.
The post names Wisconsin as an example, but leaves voters without a particular race, ballot question, or policy to evaluate. A Wisconsin 2026 ballot guide lists three statewide measures: one on the governor’s partial-veto authority over taxes and fees, one on closing places of worship during emergencies, and one on preferential treatment in public settings. The post does not say whether it means a candidate’s position, a policy debate, or a ballot measure; it offers no comparable specifics for other states1.
Wisconsin’s 2026 general election is November 3, following the state primary held August 11, according to the ballot guide. The guide lists Republican Tom Tiffany and Democrat David Crowley in the governor’s race. It also lists Republican Eric Toney challenging Attorney General Josh Kaul2. The post does not link its Title IX appeal to either contest or identify a candidate’s position on the issue1.
Parents should expect schools and elected officials to uphold those protections, not erase them in the name of transgender ideology. Moms for Liberty’s call gives voters a starting point; families should press candidates and policymakers to say plainly how they will defend girls.
Family Brief’s position is that girls’ sports and women’s private spaces must remain sex-based, because biological reality—not a claim that sex can be changed—sets the distinction these protections exist to preserve. That is why Family Brief opposes adding “sexual orientation and gender identity” to existing law: such provisions erase the line between men and women in the settings where girls need it upheld.
