Federal judge pauses Idaho bathroom law for transgender people
TL;DR
A federal judge granted a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of the most punitive parts of Idaho's March bathroom law, ruling that transgender people won’t face criminal charges for using restrooms that match their gender; the order narrows enforcement by excluding single-stall restrooms and cases where no single-user option is available on the same floor, and the state plans to appeal as the broader suit proceeds.
