AI Summary

This bill amends the Education Amendments of 1972 to specify that for the purposes of determining compliance with Title IX (a law prohibiting sex-based discrimination in education programs receiving federal funding), sex shall be recognized based solely on a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birth. The bill prohibits recipients of federal financial assistance from allowing a person whose sex is male to participate in athletic programs or activities designated for women or girls. However, the bill does allow males to train or practice with these programs as long as no female is deprived of a roster spot, participation opportunity, scholarship, or other benefits. Additionally, the bill requires the Comptroller General to conduct a study on the potential adverse impacts of allowing males to participate in women's and girls' sports.
