amend provisions related to changing rooms, sleeping quarters, and restrooms.
Signed by the Governor
Summary
The bill amends state statutes to precisely define terms such as “changing room,” “male,” “female,” and “unisex/family room,” and requires any state‑owned or leased multi‑occupancy changing rooms, restrooms or sleeping quarters to be designated for exclusive use by either males or females. It also creates specific exemptions that allow certain individuals—like parents with children under ten, caregivers, emergency responders, and others—to enter these spaces regardless of gender. The changes aim to standardize how gendered facilities are labeled and accessed in public buildings.
