What this bill would do

This bill is called the Safety and Opportunity for Girls Act of 2025. It changes Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 by adding clear definitions for the terms female, male, sex, and sex-segregated. The text states that female and male are based on biological reproductive systems. It defines sex as biologically determined to be either male or female. The bill also states that nothing in Title IX stops educational institutions from keeping sex-segregated spaces like bathrooms and locker rooms, or sex-segregated athletic and academic programs. Finally, it ensures that the Secretary cannot stop funding or make funding contingent on schools giving up these sex-segregated spaces or programs.
