North Dakota Governor Signs Controversial Pronoun Policy Bill.

North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum signed a bill into law that prohibits public schools from requiring staff to use a trans student's pronouns. The law also requires teachers to inform parents or guardians if students identify as transgender and obtain their approval before allowing the students to use the bathroom of their choice. The American Civil Liberties Union of North Dakota criticized the law, saying it violates the privacy rights of trans students and could lead to harassment and violence. Similar legislation targeting transgender Americans is being considered in other states, including Louisiana and Florida.
