Bill > LD233

This bill proposes a prohibition on biological males participating in female-designated athletic programs and activities in any school in the state that receives state funding. Specifically, the legislation would prevent schools, including elementary, secondary, and postsecondary institutions, from allowing individuals whose biological sex was assigned as male at birth to compete in athletic programs or activities specifically designated for females. The bill uses the term "biological sex assigned at birth" to define the criteria for participation, which means an individual's sex as determined by their reproductive anatomy at the time of birth. By targeting state-funded schools, the bill aims to restrict transgender female athletes from competing in women's sports programs. The legislation would apply to all levels of educational institutions that receive any form of state financial support, creating a blanket prohibition on participation based on biological sex assigned at birth.
