Attention, Soccer Moms and Dads: Don't Let Bush Bench Your Daughter!

The Bush administration wants to weaken Title IX, the law that prohibits sex discrimination in funding girls' and boys' athletic and academic programs. Before Title IX, only one in 27 girls played varsity high school sports. Today it's one in 2.5, with nearly 3 million girls now playing school sports — and those numbers would improve even more if Title IX were fully and fairly enforced, which still isn't the case. Do not let the Bush administration destroy this important federal assurance of equality. Please sign this petition that we will send to George W. Bush and members of Congress.
