Ohio Gov Signs Anti-Trans Bathroom Bill Into Law

November 27, 2024 Christianists, Republicans

The Ohio Capital Journal reports:

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine has signed a bill into law banning transgender students from using school bathrooms and locker rooms that match up with their gender identity.

The law requires people at Ohio K-12 schools and universities use the restroom that aligns with their gender assigned at birth. It also bans students from sharing overnight accommodations with people of the opposite sex from their assigned sex at birth at K-12 schools.

This does not prevent a school from having single-occupancy facilities and does not apply to someone helping a person with a disability or a child younger than 10 years old being assisted by a parent, guardian or family member. The law will take effect 90 days after DeWine signed the bill.
