In those schools where there are such gender confused students, how are they being handled now?
On Tuesday Assembly Bill 375 — which would have required “any school facility in a public school, including a restroom, locker room or shower which is designated for use by persons of one biological sex must only be used by persons of that biological sex, as determined at birth” and not self-identification — was defeated 22-20 in the full Assembly.
