Bill Summary

A Senate Resolution To Call On Congress To Reaffirm Title Ix's Protections That Afford Every Woman And Girl Equal Opportunities In Athletics And To Urge The Supreme Court Of The United States To Uphold The Authority Of Every State To Ensure Women's Sports Are Reserved For Females Only.

AI Summary

This resolution, passed by the South Carolina Senate, calls on the U.S. Congress to reaffirm Title IX, a federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in federally funded education programs, ensuring equal athletic opportunities for women and girls. It also urges the Supreme Court of the United States to support each state's right to reserve women's sports exclusively for females, based on the belief that biological differences between males and females create competitive advantages and safety concerns, and that maintaining sex-specific sports promotes fairness, safety, and privacy for female athletes.
