AB 89 and AB 844
It’s time to act now and protect girls’ sports. PERK’s legislative arm, PERK Advocacy, supports the following two bills in the California legislature that protects girls' sports in California. We have officially taken a support position on AB 89 (Sanchez)and AB 844 (Essayli) which will be heard in committee on Tuesday, April 1st, 2025.
Critical Legislative Update
AB 89 (Sanchez) would require the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) to "amend its constitution, bylaws, and policies to prohibit a pupil whose sex was assigned male at birth from participating on a girls’ interscholastic sports team."
AB 844 (Essayli) this bill would require that a pupil’s participation in sex-segregated school programs and activities, including athletic teams and competitions, and use of facilities, including bathrooms, locker rooms, showers, and overnight accommodations instead be based upon the pupil’s biological sex at birth.
