Proposition 318: Student athletics and private spaces
On the ballot: November 3, 2026 Statute referred by the Legislature (cannot later be changed except by a three-fourths legislative vote that furthers its purpose, or by voters)
A YES vote means
Private schools, public schools, and athletic associations would have to designate every team male, female, or coed by sex recorded at birth and keep males off female teams; schools could not let anyone use athletic private spaces such as restrooms not designated for their sex.
A NO vote means
Current laws on student athletics stay as they are; today the team-designation rule applies only to public schools and those competing against them.
