Summary
This resolution would designate the week of June 23 through June 29, 2025, as National Women's Sports Week. The designation is intended to celebrate the 53rd anniversary of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, landmark federal legislation that prohibits sex discrimination in education and has been instrumental in expanding opportunities for women in school athletics.
As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. If passed, it would serve as a symbolic congressional recognition of women's sports and the significance of Title IX's impact on athletic opportunities for women and girls. The resolution is currently under committee consideration and has not yet been voted on by the full Senate.
