Bill > S405

This bill provides new definitions and eligibility requirements for amateur sports governing organizations, specifically focusing on sex and participation in female athletic competitions. The bill defines "female" as an individual with a reproductive system capable of producing, transporting, and utilizing eggs for fertilization, and "male" similarly defined with respect to sperm. It adds a provision that explicitly prohibits individuals whose biological sex is male from participating in amateur athletic competitions designated for females, women, or girls. The legislation aims to establish clear guidelines about biological sex in sports and restrict male participation in female-designated athletic events. By amending existing United States Code in Title 36, the bill seeks to create a standardized approach to sex-based athletic competition, with the intent of protecting opportunities and competitive fairness for female athletes. The proposed language allows for some nuance by acknowledging potential developmental or genetic variations while maintaining a binary definition of biological sex.
