This bill would change the eligibility rules for amateur sports organizations that receive federal recognition or funding. It adds new legal definitions of "female," "male," and "sex" based on biological reproductive systems and requires that amateur sports governing bodies prohibit males from competing in female athletic competitions. The legislation specifically targets women's, girls', and female-designated sports categories in Olympic and amateur athletics. The bill was introduced in February 2024 and referred to the Senate Commerce Committee but contains no specific funding provisions or implementation timeline. The measure would essentially mandate that sports organizations maintain sex-separated competitions based on the biological definitions provided in the law.
