Bill Summary

To limit participation within female-only college and high school sports to biological females.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend titles 10 and 10a of the general statutes to prohibit biological males (defined as individuals assigned male sex at birth) from participating in female-only athletic teams and using female-only locker rooms and facilities at public educational institutions, including intercollegiate, interscholastic, and intramural athletic events. The legislation aims to restrict participation in female sports exclusively to individuals who are biologically female, effectively preventing transgender women and transgender girls from competing on or accessing female sports teams and facilities. The bill's stated purpose is to limit participation in female college and high school sports to those who are biologically female, which would require athletes to compete only on teams that match their sex assigned at birth. This proposed law would impact athletic programs and transgender athletes' ability to participate in sports consistent with their gender identity.
