Bill > HB30

This bill creates new sections of the Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) Chapter 158 to address the use of school restrooms, locker rooms, and shower rooms. The key provisions are: 1. Defining terms, such as "biological sex" and "school," and establishing that schools must designate restrooms, locker rooms, and shower rooms for use by students based on their biological sex (determined at birth). 2. Making legislative findings that allowing students to use facilities designated for the opposite biological sex can create significant potential for disruption, unsafe conditions, and psychological harm to students. 3. Requiring schools to provide separate, private areas for students based on their biological sex and to accommodate students who assert a gender different from their biological sex, but not by allowing them to use facilities designated for the opposite biological sex. 4. Providing a private cause of action for students who encounter a person of the opposite biological sex in a restroom, locker room, or shower room, with the offending school liable for costs, expenses, and fees. The bill also declares an emergency and states that it takes effect upon passage and approval by the Governor.
