Today, the House of Representatives voted 218-206 to pass H.R. 28, The Protection Of Women And Girls In Sports Act Of 2025.
The bill would amend the Education Amendments of 1972 to clarify that "sex shall be recognized based solely on a person’s reproductive biology and genetics at birth" for the purposes of determining compliance with Title IX in athletics.
Title IX is the federal civil rights law which prohibits sex discrimination in schools and education programs that receive government funding.
All five congresspeople from Connecticut -- Reps. Joe Courtney, Rosa DeLauro, Jahana Hayes, Jim Himes and John Larson -- all democrats -- voted against the act.
Two democrats from Texas, however, voted in favor of H.R. 28, including Reps. Vicente Gonzalez and Henry Cuellar.
