California Bans Schools from Outing Transgender Students
TL;DR
The Chino Valley Unified School District in Southern California is suing Governor Gavin Newsom over a new law that bans schools from requiring parental notification of a child's gender identity change. The district argues the law violates parental rights, while Newsom's office defends it as preserving the child-parent relationship. The law, which takes effect in January, aims to protect LGBTQ+ students and has sparked a broader debate on parental rights and student privacy.
