California Bill Seeks to Ban Transgender Notification Policies in Schools
TL;DR
Democratic California lawmakers have proposed a bill to ban transgender notification policies in schools, which would prevent school employees from disclosing a student's gender identity without consent and protect teachers from retaliation. Assemblyman Chris Ward plans to amend AB 1955 to enforce this ban, aiming to provide statutory guidance and support for families. This follows a lawsuit by California Attorney General Rob Bonta against a school district that enacted such a policy.
