AN ACT PROVIDING CIVIL IMMUNITY TO INTERSCHOLASTIC ATHLETIC ORGANIZATIONS AND THE SANCTIONING BODIES OF PRIVATE YOUTH ORGANIZATIONS THAT ADOPT GENDER IDENTITY POLICIES CONCERNING ATHLETIC PARTICIPATION AND COMPETITION.
SB 690 provides legal protection by granting civil immunity to high school athletic organizations and private youth sports sanctioning bodies that require athletes to compete on teams matching the gender listed on their official birth certificate. The bill shields these entities from lawsuits when enforcing policies based on birth certificate gender rather than gender identity. It directly affects schools, leagues, and sports organizations that adopt such policies for athletic participation. The key provision removes civil liability for these organizations when they follow birth certificate requirements, without mandating the policies themselves.
