HR 5050 United States House · 119th Congress

Safety and Opportunity for Girls Act of 2025

This bill amends Title IX to clarify that "female," "male," and "sex" refer to biological characteristics (egg-producing or sperm-producing reproductive systems). It explicitly states that schools receiving federal funding cannot be forced to eliminate sex-segregated spaces (like bathrooms or locker rooms) or sex-segregated athletic/academic programs. The bill directly affects all schools and colleges that accept federal education funding, ensuring they may maintain such programs without losing that funding. Key mechanisms include adding specific definitions to Title IX and prohibiting the Secretary of Education from making funding contingent on ending sex-segregated facilities or programs.
