U.S. House passes bill on hot-button transgender topic: Here's what to know

^{Published on 2025-01-15 23:25:26 - MSN}

The U.S. House passed a bill on Tuesday that would ban transgender athletes from participating in women's and girls' sports, the first step in what is expected to be a long and controversial process.

The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill on April 20, 2023, known as the "Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act," which aims to prevent transgender girls and women from participating in sports that align with their gender identity at schools receiving federal funding. This legislation, if enacted, would define sex based on an individual's reproductive biology and genetics at birth, effectively barring transgender athletes from competing in sports consistent with their gender identity. The bill has sparked significant controversy, with supporters arguing it ensures fairness in women's sports by maintaining competitive equity, while opponents, including the White House, claim it discriminates against transgender individuals, potentially violating Title IX protections. The bill's future is uncertain as it faces opposition in the Senate and a likely veto from President Biden if it were to pass.
