Bill > HB2734

This bill would require all athletes to compete in sports based on the biological sex they were assigned at birth. The bill cites scientific differences between male and female athletes, such as men having higher levels of testosterone, denser bones, and greater muscle strength and endurance. It designates athletic teams as for "males, men, or boys," "females, women, or girls," or "coed or mixed," and prohibits students of the male sex from participating on female teams. The bill allows students to establish their sex through a physician's statement and provides protections for educational institutions that maintain separate teams based on biological sex. It also creates a private right of action for students who are deprived of athletic opportunities or face retaliation due to violations of the law.
