permitting classification of individuals based on biological sex under certain limited circumstances.
Veto Sustained 08/19/2026: RC 165-149 Lacking Necessary Two-Thirds Vote HJ 16 P. 36
Summary
The bill would require bathrooms, locker rooms and other multi‑user facilities in public schools, prisons and municipal buildings to be designated for use based on a person’s biological sex as listed on their birth certificate. It also limits the use of gender‑identity claims to gain access to spaces that are designated for females or males, creating a new trespass offense for men entering female‑only areas except in emergencies or care situations. The measure aims to preserve sex‑segregated spaces while restricting gender‑identity‑based access.
