What’s happening with Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025?
The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025, known as H.R. 28, passed the House on January 14, 2025, but has seen no action in the Senate since August 2026. The Senate must now decide whether to move the bill forward, though the requirement for 60 votes to overcome procedural hurdles remains a major barrier. History shows that many bills passed by the House never receive a vote in the Senate, making further progress on this effort unlikely.
