Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a new section to the education law that bars anyone not assigned female at birth from participating in female-designated interscholastic or intramural sports in grades 7-12. This directly addresses transgender/sports by restricting access based on birth sex assignment. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
