Keep Our Girls Safe Act of 2025
Keep Our Girls Safe Act of 2025 would amend Title IX to require that locker rooms in active use for an education program or activity may be used only by individuals whose sex is the same as the room’s sex, determined solely by each person’s reproductive biology and genetics at birth. In practical terms, the bill prohibits someone from using a locker room if the room is in active use by individuals of a different birth sex. The act defines sex strictly by birth biology/genetics and would enforce this rule through Title IX compliance. It takes effect 30 days after enactment. The sponsors listed indicate introduction in the House, with referral to the Committee on Education and Workforce, and the bill is labeled as the “Keep Our Girls Safe Act of 2025.”
