Defining Sex in Schools: Protecting Single-Sex Spaces and Sports (Title IX).

This bill amends Title IX to define "sex" strictly based on reproductive biology and genetics at birth. The primary consequence is ensuring that educational institutions can maintain sex-segregated spaces, such as bathrooms, locker rooms, and athletic programs, without jeopardizing their federal funding. This clarification mandates that school policies regarding access to these facilities must adhere to biological sex definitions.
Key points
The definition of "sex" under Title IX is limited solely to biological and genetic sex determined at birth.
Schools are explicitly allowed to maintain separate bathrooms, locker rooms, and sports programs based on sex without losing federal funding.
This change directly impacts access rules for school facilities and sports teams for students.
