Elise Stefanik introduced legislation that would protect single-sex organizations on college campuses as many groups have implemented rules to force organizations to become co-ed.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Caller first obtained the legislation, which is titled the Freedom of Association in Higher Education Act. The bill would specifically amend the Higher Education Act so students can choose the organization they want to associate with by banning discrimination against students who join single-sex organizations strictly because of the organization\u2019s single-sex status. It would ensure universities cannot unfairly impose policies or restrictions on single-sex organizations. The bill also would allow single-sex organizations to define their own membership criteria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will always stand up for constitutional rights across America and on college campuses where they are under threat. I am proud to lead the effort to protect single-sex organizations on college campuses, so they can continue to thrive and support our next generation of leaders. All college students should have the opportunity to join communities that help them flourish and grow, but this is undermined when students in single-sex organizations can be discriminated against purely because they joined these organizations,\u201d Stefanik told the Daily Caller before introducing the bill. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/03\/31\/never-trump-candidate-lonny-koons-allegedly-forging-petition-signatures-against-elise-stefanik\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: Never-Trump Candidate Seen Allegedly Illegally Forging Petition Signatures In Parking Lot In Effort To Run Against Elise Stefanik)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ THE BILL HERE:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View (DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) -- EXCLUSIVE: Stefanik Introduces Legislation Protecting Single-Sex Organizations In Higher Education on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/568488151\/DAILY-CALLER-OBTAINED-EXCLUSIVE-Stefanik-Introduces-Legislation-Protecting-Single-Sex-Organizations-In-Higher-Education#from_embed\">(DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) \u2014 \u2026<\/a> by <a title=\"View Henry Rodgers&#039;s profile on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/user\/527927298\/Henry-Rodgers#from_embed\">Henry Rodgers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy legislation will protect students\u2019 rights to free association and uphold access to the unique and supportive environments that can be fostered through single-sex organizations,\u201d she added. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/03\/25\/exclusive-elise-stefanik-gop-midterms-elevate-pac\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: \u2018Historic Year For Republicans\u2019 \u2014 A Look Inside House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik\u2019s Efforts To Win Back The Majority)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The legislation has four cosponsors: Illinois Rep.
