@EdWorkforceCmte to Hold First Markup on Bills Protecting Women’s Sports and Parental Rights

On Wednesday at 10:15 a.m., the Education and the Workforce Committee will hold a markup to consider two bills: H.R. 734, the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2023 and H.R. 5, the Parents Bill of Rights Act.  
 
“The Biden administration is orchestrating a radical culture shift in America’s schools that is fundamentally changing what students are exposed to in the classroom and on the field. We’ve learned that prolonged school closures have set students back years in learning and development, yet the Left is more focused on peddling an agenda that silences parents’ voices and allows biological males to compete in women’s sports,” said Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC). “By putting forth legislative measures that create a Parents Bill of Rights and protect women’s sports, Republicans are making good on our promise to establish a future that is built on freedom, where a child’s academics are put first and parents have a say in in their children’s curriculum.”

What:
Markup of H.R. 734, the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2023 and H.R. 5, the Parents Bill of Rights Act

When:
10:15 a.m. on Wednesday, March 8, 2023

Where:
2175 Rayburn House Office Building

Press: 
The meeting is open to the press and will be live-streamed on the Committee's YouTube page.
