Bill > SRes295

This resolution supports designating the week of June 23-29, 2025, as "National Women's Sports Week" to commemorate Title IX, a landmark 1972 law that prohibits sex discrimination in educational programs, including athletics. The resolution highlights Title IX's transformative impact, noting a 545% increase in women's college sports participation and a 990% increase in high school sports participation. However, the resolution contains controversial language expressing opposition to transgender athletes participating in women's sports, asserting that such participation undermines women's athletic opportunities. The resolution calls for observing the week through programs that celebrate female athletes, honor coaches and parents, promote equal athletic access, and support legislative efforts to maintain single-sex sports. The proposed week would recognize the law's role in guaranteeing equal athletic opportunities and the significant contributions of women in sports, while also taking a specific stance on gender participation in athletic competitions.
