Illinois HB1161 prohibits state funding conditions that require educational institutions to eliminate sex-segregated spaces and programs.
HB1161, known as the Safety and Opportunity for Girls Act, ensures that no state funding for educational institutions in Illinois can be contingent on them eliminating sex-segregated spaces, such as bathrooms and locker rooms, or sex-segregated athletic or academic programs. The bill defines "sex" as determined by a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birth and "sex-segregated" as limited to or separated by sex. This legislation aims to protect the maintenance of sex-segregated facilities and programs in educational institutions.
