An Act To Prohibit Males From Participating In Female Sports Or Using Female Facilities
LD 1134 prohibits any Maine school receiving state funding from allowing a person whose biological sex was assigned at birth as male to participate in competitive sports designated for females or use facilities exclusively for females. The bill applies to all elementary, secondary, and postsecondary schools in Maine that receive state funds, directly affecting their athletic programs and facility access policies. Key provisions require schools to restrict participation and facility use based on biological sex assigned at birth, as defined in the legislation. This policy change specifically targets competitive sports and designated female facilities within state-funded educational institutions. The bill does not address non-competitive activities or facilities not designated exclusively for females.
