A resolution celebrating the accomplishments of title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, also known as the Patsy Takemoto Mink Equal Opportunity in Education Act, and recognizing the need to continue pursuing the goal of educational opportunities for all women and girls.

This Senate resolution marks the 54th anniversary of title IX, the 1972 federal law that bans sex discrimination in education programs that receive federal funding. It celebrates progress under the law and states that work remains to secure the rights it guarantees. It calls on the executive branch to make sure schools prevent and respond to sex discrimination and harassment, including based on pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, sex characteristics, and sex stereotypes. It also condemns what it calls the use of title IX to harm transgender, intersex, and nonbinary students and to end diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. The resolution does not change any law.
