SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed several bills Saturday aimed at bolstering the state's protections for LGBTQ+ people, a day after issuing a controversial veto that was criticized by advocates. The new laws include legislation that focuses on support for LGBTQ+ youth. A judge halted the policy after California Attorney General Rob Bonta sued the Chino Valley Unified School District. “I’ve been disheartened over the last few years as I watched the rising hate and heard the vitriol toward the trans community.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — A judge on Wednesday halted a Southern California school district from requiring parents to be notified if their children change their gender identification or pronouns at school. Bonta argues the policy will forcibly out transgender students in violation of their privacy rights and threaten their well-being. Chino Valley contends the policy seeks to involve parents so they can provide support their children need. He also questioned whether elementary school students as young as 4 and 5 years old should be treated the same as high school teens involved in confidential counseling. He then worked with school board members and the California Family Council to draft the policy that was voted on in Chino Valley.

The attorney general, a Democrat, said the school district policy amounted to the “forced outing” of transgender students. It also might deter other school districts in California from imposing similar requirements. In recent weeks, the Anderson Union High School District in Northern California and the Murrieta Valley and Temecula Valley unified school districts in the Inland Empire have enacted policies similar to the one enacted by Chino Valley Unified. Orange Unified School District board members are also scheduled to consider a transgender notification policy on Thursday. Nearly a month into its school year, the Chino Valley Unified School District must shelve its notification policy and await further court proceedings.

The attorney general, a Democrat, said the policies amounted to the “forced outing” of transgender students. The other districts include Anderson Union High School District in Northern California and the Murrieta Valley and Temecula Valley school districts in the Inland Empire. Mr. Bonta filed his lawsuit in San Bernardino Superior Court asking for a temporary injunction against the Chino Valley policy and seeking a permanent order blocking it. He argues that the policy violates the California Constitution because it discriminates against transgender students, denies their right to education and violates their right to privacy. “This is another ploy to stop all the districts around California from adopting a common sense legal policy.

California's attorney general is suing a school district over its policy that would forcibly out some LGBTQ+ students. The new policy requires school staff to tell parents if their kids want to use different pronouns. The lawsuit says the policy unlawfully discriminates against transgender and gender non-conforming students. California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit Monday against the district accusing it of unlawfully discriminating against transgender and nonbinary students. The lawsuit also accuses the school board president of saying that these students' parents need to take "non-affirming" actions so the kids can "get better."
