Proposition 318: Require Schools and Athletic Associations to Restrict Use of Restrooms, Locker Rooms, and Other Private Spaces Based on Sex Measure

A "yes" vote supports adopting this law, to:

• prohibit schools and athletic associations from authorizing a student, athlete, employee, or other individual from using a restroom, locker room, shower room, or other private space that is not designated for their sex;

• define sex as the "biological status as male or female as recorded at birth on the individual's original birth certificate;" and

• remove the provision allowing any student, including females, to participate in any interscholastic or intramural athletic team or sport designated for males.

A "no" vote opposes adopting this law, thereby maintaining the existing statute that:

• prohibits schools from opening sports teams that are designated for girls or females to any students of the male sex;

• allows girls and females to participate on sports teams designated for boys or males;

• and contains no restriction on the use of public restrooms, locker rooms, showers, or other facilities based on sex.
