FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 19, 2024

ATLANTA | Today, Lt. Governor Burt Jones issued a statement on the Senate Substitute to House Bill 1104, which would protect the rights of women and girls. House Bill 1104 would prohibit public schools and private schools that participate in sports with public schools from allowing biological males to compete in sports designated for females. Also, HB 1104 would prohibit schools from allowing individuals to use multiple-occupancy restrooms and changing areas that are different from their biological sex, no matter what gender identity they claim.

“Biological males have no business competing alongside females,” said Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones. “Unfortunately, Title IX and women’s sports are under attack by a radical ideology that creates an unsafe and uneven playing field. I am proud to stand up against this nonsense and protect the integrity of women’s sports.”
