Whereas title IX, a part of the Education Amendments of 1972, was signed into law on June 23, 1972, to end discrimination against women and girls in education and athletics; Whereas title IX has served as the bedrock of equal opportunity in education and athletics, ensuring millions of women and girls have access to high- quality educational opportunities and competitive athletic programs; Whereas girls’ high school sports participation rate is greater than 11 times what it was when title IX passed, an increase of more than 1,000 percent; Whereas, when title IX was enacted, only 1 in 27 girls participated in school sports, today, it is 2 in 5; Whereas over 1,000,000,000 women have played college sports since title IX’s enactment; and Whereas the ripple effect of title IX has extended far beyond participation numbers, but has also led to increased funding for women’s athletics, increased representation of women in coaching and leadership positions, and paved the way for countless women and girls to excel in fields from science and technology, to business, politics, and the arts: Now, therefore, be it enacted Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
