AI Summary

This bill amends Wisconsin state law to require the University of Wisconsin and technical college sports and athletic teams to be designated based on the sex (defined as the sex assigned at birth) of the participating students. Specifically, the bill requires these teams to be designated as either for males/men, females/women, or coed/mixed-sex. The bill prohibits students of the male sex from participating on teams designated for females/women. The bill also provides students with the ability to bring legal action against the institutions for violations, and allows the institutions to take legal action if they face harm from compliance with the new requirements.
