AI Summary
This bill would stop male students from playing on girls’ sports teams at schools run by the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), which serves many military families. It defines “female” and “male” based on whether a person’s reproductive system produces eggs or sperm, including notes about rare developmental or genetic differences. A “female sport” is an activity set aside only for students who are female under that definition.
Key points:
- Who is affected: Students at DoDEA schools, including those on U.S. bases and overseas installations.
- What changes: Male students could not participate in girls’ sports; girls’ sports are limited to students defined as female in the bill.
- When: It would take effect if and when it becomes law; the text does not give a separate start date.
