New Hampshire HB1217 permits classification based on biological sex in specific circumstances.
New Hampshire HB1217 amends the Law Against Discrimination to allow classifications based on biological sex in three specific areas: construction, maintenance, operation, and use of lavatory facilities or locker rooms, athletic or sporting events, and activities where physical strength, speed, or endurance is recognized to give an advantage to biological males. This bill defines "biological sex" as male and female biological sexes and clarifies that classification by biological sex is optional, not mandatory. The changes take effect 60 days after the bill's passage.
