Ohio Restricts Bathroom Access for Transgender Students

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) “signed a bill to prohibit transgender Ohioans from using bathrooms that align with their gender identity,” the Columbus Dispatch reports.

“The new law will require K-12 and college students at public and private schools to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their sex assigned at birth. It also bans multi-occupancy gender neutral restrooms and prevents transgender students from sharing overnight accommodations with peers of the same gender.”
