Which option lists a true statement about Title IX?

• A. A tax regulation
• B. A ban on discrimination based on sex in sports
• C. A labor rights law
• D. A law on immigration

Answer: (B)

Title IX is a federal civil rights law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in any education program receiving federal funding. In practice, it requires schools to provide equal opportunities in athletics, so a ban on discrimination based on sex in sports accurately captures a key effect of Title IX in educational settings. The law covers education more broadly, but its impact on sports is the aspect most commonly highlighted. It is not a tax regulation, a labor rights law, or immigration law.
