What this bill would do

This bill is titled the "Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025." It seeks to amend the Education Amendments of 1972 regarding Title IX compliance in athletics. The legislation mandates that sex be recognized based solely on a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birth. Under this rule, it would be a violation for those receiving Federal funds to allow a person of male sex to participate in athletic programs or activities designated for women or girls.
