Title: ●Clarifying Statutory Limitation on Disability as it Applies to Gender Identity and Dysphoria in Nondiscrimination in Programs and Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance. 
Abstract:

This proposed rule would revise 45 CFR Part 84 under section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 to address discrimination on the basis of disability in programs and activities funded by HHS. HHS revised 45 CFR Part 84 under Section 504 in May of 2024 (see Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance (RIN 0945-AA15)) and now intends to clarify existing statutory limitations on the definition of disability as it applies to gender identity disorders and/or gender dysphoria.
