GOP bill would codify Trump executive order keeping transgender students out of girls’ sports

Rep. Mary Miller, a House GOP lawmaker, is taking steps to make President Donald Trump’s Title IX changes permanent. She plans to introduce legislation later this month that would codify Trump’s executive order aimed at keeping biological males out of female-only spaces. This includes locker rooms, bathrooms, school sports teams, and any other academic extension that receives funding under Title IX federal code. The legislation threatens to withhold funding from schools that do not comply with the proposed law.
“The innocence, privacy, and safety of young girls should never be up for debate,” Miller stated. “Any public school that refuses to follow President Trump’s orders to protect female-only spaces has no right to receive a single dime of taxpayer funding.”
The bill is currently being shared with other House GOP offices for potential co-sponsors and is expected to be introduced next week. It is anticipated to attract significant interest among Republicans, as a similar bill introduced by Miller in the 118th Congress garnered support from 72 House lawmakers.
In the previous Congress, Miller’s bill aimed to reverse Biden administration policies that expanded permissions for transgender students. Now that Trump is back in office, Miller and other House Republicans are working to solidify his reversals of Biden administration policies into federal law.
The legislation, as outlined by Fox News Digital, is concise and spans two pages. It specifies that locker room facilities in use for educational programs can only be used by individuals of the same sex based on their reproductive biology and genetics at birth. It further states that it is unlawful under Title IX for individuals of one sex to use a locker room while individuals of a different sex are using it for an educational program or activity.
A potential vote on this bill could present a challenge for moderate Democrats, especially in light of recent confrontations from the progressive left regarding transgender rights in medical and school sports participation.
