New rules for girls' school sports

If enacted, schools and colleges that receive federal funds would be barred from letting students who were male at birth compete on teams for women or girls. For these rules, sex would be based only on reproductive biology and genetics at birth. The rule would cover any athletic program tied to team participation. Schools could let male students train or practice with girls’ teams only if no girl loses a roster spot, a chance to play or compete, a scholarship, admission, or any other benefit. The Comptroller General would study what “any other benefit” means and report to Congress. The rule would take effect upon enactment.
