This bill would change how Title IX is applied in schools by defining “female,” “male,” and “sex” based on biology. It says “sex” means either male or female as biologically determined, and gives specific definitions for “female” and “male.” It also says Title IX does not stop schools from having sex-separated spaces like bathrooms and locker rooms, or from running sex-separated sports or academic programs.

In everyday terms, the bill aims to keep sex-separated facilities and programs allowed in schools and colleges, using biological definitions of sex to guide those decisions under Title IX.

• Who is affected: Students and schools that receive federal funds under Title IX.
• What changes: Sets biological definitions for “female” and “male,” defines “sex,” and clarifies that sex-separated bathrooms, locker rooms, and athletic or academic programs are permitted under Title IX.
• When: Would take effect if enacted into law; this is a proposal at the introduced stage.
