EDUCATION-GENDER IN ATHLETICS

Summary

The Gender in Athletics Act would force public colleges and K‑12 schools in Illinois to determine who can play on a team using a student’s biological sex rather than gender identity. It also creates a grievance process for students or parents to challenge alleged violations and gives the State Board of Higher Education authority to write implementing rules. Sponsors say the measure is intended to preserve fair competition in school sports.
