To protect women and girls in athletics.

This legislation requires that athletic programs at educational institutions receiving federal funding be designated based strictly on biological sex assigned at birth. Under this policy, sports teams or programs categorized as for women or girls would be restricted to female participants, effectively barring transgender women and girls from competing on those specific teams. Proponents argue this mandate preserves fair competition and safety for female athletes in sports, while critics contend it discriminates against transgender youth and restricts their access to educational extracurricular activities. If enacted, schools across the country would need to align their sports policies with these new federal requirements to avoid the risk of losing federal financial assistance.
