Bill overview
House Bill 4469 proposes an amendment to Michigan’s Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act, specifically addressing sex discrimination and harassment, particularly in athletics. The bill creates an exemption for certain K-12 schools that receive federal Title IX funding, allowing them to determine athletic eligibility based on an individual’s biological sex as recorded on their birth certificate. This change aims to provide flexibility for schools while upholding Title IX requirements. It modifies existing state law to accommodate this specific provision.
