This bill would change how schools and other education programs handle locker room use under Title IX. It says that when a locker room is being used for an education program or activity, only people of the same sex may use it at the same time, and sex would be defined only by a person’s reproductive biology and genetics at birth. In simple terms, the bill would require schools to keep shared locker room access separated by sex as the bill defines it.
- It would apply to Title IX, the federal law that bans sex-based discrimination in education.
- It says a person may not use a locker room while it is in active use by people of a different sex, as defined by birth biology and genetics.
- The bill would take effect 30 days after it is signed into law.
