Bill > HB183

This bill, known as the "Save Women's Sports Act," establishes guidelines for student participation in athletic contests organized by sex. It prohibits school districts, charter schools, and postsecondary educational institutions from allowing students to compete in athletics competitions designated for the opposite biological sex, as stated on their official birth certificate. The bill also outlines penalties for violations, including the withholding of state funding for schools and the imposition of fines for postsecondary institutions. The bill aims to further the government's interest in ensuring sufficient opportunities for athletics remain available for female students to remedy past discrimination based on sex.
