Arizona lawmakers gave final approval Monday to forbidding teachers from calling students by a pronoun that does not match their biological sex at birth, and to requiring schools to create a third bathroom choice.
PHOENIX — State lawmakers gave final approval Monday to forbidding teachers from calling students by a pronoun that does not match their biological sex.
People are also reading… "I can tell you as a young person, if this bill had come through when I was in high school, it would have terrified me,'' Austin said."I was already terrified of knowing that I would not be accepted in the society as such.''No one spoke Monday in favor of the bill, previously approved by the Republican-led Senate.
Austin said lawmakers need to understand the implications of children being unable to be referred to by the gender with which they identify. Bathroom rules spelled outSo rather than try to force students to use the bathroom that matches their gender — and try to police that — Kavanagh's Senate Bill 1040 says that, on written request, a public school must provide a reasonable accommodation to any person who is, for any reason, unwilling or unable to use a multi-occupancy restroom or changing facility designated for their sex.
The bill also says anyone who encounters someone of the opposite sex in a multi-use restroom can sue the school district for monetary damages for psychological, emotional and physical harm suffered, as well as for reasonable legal fees and costs.
