RESOLUTION

Prohibiting Members, officers, and employees of the House from using single-sex facilities other than those corresponding to their biological sex, and for other purposes.

Whereas allowing biological males into single-sex facilities, such as restrooms, locker rooms, and changing rooms designed for women, jeopardizes the safety and dignity of Members, officers, and employees of the House who are female: Now, therefore, be it Resolved,

SECTION 1. PROHIBITION ON THE USE OF SINGLE-SEX FACILITIES OTHER THAN

THOSE CORRESPONDING TO THE BIOLOGICAL SEX OF AN INDIVIDUAL.

(a) Prohibition.--A Member, Delegate, Resident Commissioner, officer, or employee of the House may not use a single-sex facility (including a restroom, changing room, or locker room) in the Capitol or House Office Buildings, other than those corresponding to the biological sex of such individual. (b) Enforcement.--The Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of Representatives is charged with the enforcement of the prohibition under subsection (a).
