Ohio governor signs bill limiting bathroom use by transgender students

LA Times  

Transgender students from kindergarten through college at Ohio public and private schools will be banned from using multiperson bathrooms that fit their gender identities under a measure that Republican Gov. The Republican-backed measure — labeled the “Protect All Students Act” — requires public and private schools, colleges and universities to designate separate bathrooms, locker rooms and overnight accommodations “for the exclusive use” of either males and females, based on one’s gender assigned at or near birth, in school buildings and other facilities used for school- “It revolves around safety, security, and, I think, common sense. At least 11 states have adopted laws, like Ohio’s, barring transgender girls and women from girls’ and women’s bathrooms at public schools — and in some cases, in other government facilities. Politics Democrats rally behind first out transgender member of Congress, decry Republican attacks Democrats are rallying to defend Rep.-elect Sarah McBride, the first out transgender member of Congress, calling Republican measures to ban her from using women’s bathrooms at the Capitol ‘craven’ and ‘cruel.’ Ohio’s bathroom bill was debated for 19 months before finally clearing the GOP-led Legislature on Nov. 13, during Transgender Awareness Week. Democrats in the Republican-dominated legislature there have also introduced some bills intended to protect people from discrimination on the basis of “gender identity or expression.” In Ohio, a law that both bars gender-affirming care for minors and blocks transgender girls and women from participating in girls and women’s sports competitions took effect in August.
