The bill proposes an exemption for women's athletics within the Human Rights Act in Minnesota, specifically codified as section 363A.265. It allows various entities, including educational institutions and sports organizations, to limit participation in athletic teams and competitions to females, women, or girls only. This limitation includes the exclusion of individuals who are male, regardless of their gender identity, particularly affecting trans-identifying athletes whose biological sex does not align with their gender identity. The bill clarifies that sex is determined solely by a person's reproductive biology at birth and does not encompass gender identity.

Additionally, the bill states that female athletic teams may permit males to train or practice with them, provided that females are not deprived of opportunities such as roster spots. It also prohibits governmental agencies and athletic organizations from investigating or taking action against entities that adopt policies consistent with this exemption. The provisions of this section will take effect the day after the bill is enacted.
