Bill Summary

An Act amending title 15, chapter 1, article 1, Arizona Revised Statutes, by adding section 15-120.04; relating to public schools

AI Summary

This bill, the "Arizona Accommodations for All Children Act," amends Arizona's education laws to require public schools to provide reasonable accommodations to any person who is unwilling or unable to use multi-occupancy restrooms or changing facilities designated for their biological sex. Reasonable accommodations may include access to single-occupancy facilities or use of employee restrooms. The bill also grants a private cause of action against the school if a person encounters someone of the opposite biological sex in a multi-occupancy restroom or changing facility, or is required to share sleeping quarters with someone of the opposite biological sex, unless they are family members. The bill defines "sex" based on a person's immutable biological sex at birth, as evidenced by government-issued identification.
