Whereas athletic participation has an important, positive impact on young girls, improving their physical health, self-confidence, and discipline; Whereas women have been responsible for some of the greatest athletic feats in the sports history of the United States, from the Olympic games to professional competition; Whereas female athletes have served as inspirations for generations of women and girls; Whereas the enactment of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 ( 20 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ) (referred to in this preamble as Title IX ) marked a pivotal moment in the Federal support of girls in sports; Whereas there are fundamental biological differences between men and women that put women at a competitive disadvantage in sports and jeopardize their safety during competition; Whereas, in recent years, there has been an increase in the number of biological men allowed to compete in women’s sports; Whereas, since 2003, biological men have displaced women and girls from over 950 championship titles, medals, scholarships, and records they should have rightfully won, including at least 28 women's sports titles in volleyball, swimming, mountain biking, track and field, weightlifting, and cycling; Whereas the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) has instituted new policies to protect biological girls in sports and ensure that only student athletes whose biological sex is female will be allowed to compete in NAIA-sponsored women’s sports teams; Whereas it is imperative that women’s and girl’s opportunities to compete athletically are protected; and Whereas October 10th, as represented by the Roman numerals XX , signifies the female XX chromosomes: Now, therefore, be it

That the Senate— (1) recognizes October 10, 2025, as American Girls in Sports Day ; (2) celebrates the impact of women on the sports culture and history of the United States; (3) recognizes the importance of Title IX in protecting biological women in sports; and (4) calls on sports-governing bodies in the United States and abroad to protect biological women and girls in sports.
III 119th CONGRESS 1st Session S.

Whereas athletic participation has an important positive impact on young girls, improving their physical, emotional, and psychological health, self-confidence, and discipline; Whereas women have been responsible for some of the greatest athletic feats in the history of sports in the United States, from the Olympic games to professional competition, through opportunities to compete in collegiate sports; Whereas the enactment of title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 ( 20 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ) (referred to in this preamble as title IX ) marked a pivotal moment in the Federal support of women in sports and applied to virtually all postsecondary institutions as recipients of Federal financial assistance; Whereas there are fundamental and enduring biological differences between males and females that put females at a competitive disadvantage in sports and jeopardize their safety during competition against males; Whereas, in 2010, the National Collegiate Athletic Association unilaterally adopted a policy that enables biological males to participate on women’s rosters and compete in the women’s sports category, a policy that continues today; Whereas the policy described in the previous proviso disproportionately negatively impacts female athletes; Whereas the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (referred to in this preamble as the NAIA ) has instituted new policies to protect biological women in sports and ensure that only student athletes whose biological sex is female will be allowed to compete on NAIA-sponsored women's sports teams; Whereas it is imperative that opportunities for collegiate women to compete athletically are protected on the basis of sex; and Whereas member institutions of the National Collegiate Athletic Association have an obligation under title IX to ensure equality of benefits and opportunities in athletic programs on the basis of sex: Now, therefore be it

That the Senate— (1) calls on the National Collegiate Athletic Association (referred to in this resolution as NCAA ) to revoke its transgender student-athlete eligibility policy that directly discriminates against female student athletes; (2) implores the NCAA immediately to protect the integrity of collegiate women’s sports by forbidding transgender-identifying males to compete on any women’s sports roster or in any collegiate competition; (3) urges the NCAA to require its member conferences to conform to a biological sex-based policy across all sports and all divisions; and (4) calls on all sports-governing bodies in the United States to protect the category of women’s sport for biological women and girls.
III 119th CONGRESS 1st Session S.

1. Sense of the Senate regarding the commutation of the death sentence of Anthony George Battle granted by President Biden on December 23, 2024 It is the sense of the Senate that— (1) President Joseph R. Biden undermined the rule of law and robbed victims of justice when he commuted the death sentence of Anthony George Battle on December 23, 2024; (2) Anthony Battle was convicted of murdering his wife, a U.S. Marine, and sentenced to life imprisonment; (3) while Battle was serving his life sentence at Atlanta Federal Penitentiary, he murdered a 31-year-old correctional officer named D’Antonio Washington by bludgeoning Washington in the back of the head repeatedly with a ball-peen hammer; (4) when Battle was questioned by investigators, he had no remorse and stated that he was happy he killed Washington; (5) this commutation is a reprehensible insult to the victims of Anthony Battle; (6) President Biden claimed that he commuted the death sentences of Anthony Battle and 36 other murderers out of a principled opposition to the death penalty but refused to commute the death sentences of the 3 most controversial death row inmates, demonstrating that President Biden was motivated by politics, not principles; and (7) the Senate unequivocally condemns this commutation.
