Summary

The bill defines “biological sex” and requires correctional facilities, shelters, schools and other covered entities to provide single‑occupancy or sex‑designated restrooms, changing rooms and overnight spaces. It also bars schools and government employers from disciplining anyone who refuses to use a name or pronoun that matches the person’s biological sex, while creating private causes of action against institutions that allow opposite‑sex restroom use. The measure aims to standardize facility access and protect individuals from what its sponsors view as privacy infringements.
