Bill > H2

This bill, titled the Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act, mandates that multiple-occupancy bathrooms and changing facilities in public schools and state agencies must be designated and used based on a person's biological sex, which is defined as the physical condition of being male or female as stated on a birth certificate. While allowing for single-occupancy facilities or other accommodations for special circumstances, it prohibits individuals from using multiple-occupancy facilities designated for the opposite biological sex, with specific exceptions for custodial, maintenance, medical assistance, or accompanying individuals needing help. The bill also preempts local governments from enacting ordinances that regulate employment practices like minimum wage, paid leave, or benefits, ensuring statewide consistency in these matters, and clarifies that discrimination based on biological sex is prohibited in employment and public accommodations, while also stating that designating facilities by biological sex is not considered discrimination and that no private right of action is created by these provisions.
