Bill > SCR1006

This concurrent resolution, relating to public schools in Arizona, requires schools to provide reasonable accommodations for students who are unwilling or unable to use multi-occupancy restrooms, changing facilities, or sleeping quarters designated for their sex, provided the student submits a written request and satisfactory evidence of their sex, which is defined as immutable biological sex determined at birth. Accommodations may include single-occupancy facilities or employee restrooms, but not access to facilities designated for the opposite sex while others are present, except for specific purposes like custodial work or emergencies. The resolution also establishes a private cause of action for students whose accommodation requests are denied or who encounter individuals of the opposite sex in these facilities due to school permission, allowing for monetary damages and attorney fees, and prohibits school employees from knowingly using pronouns or first names that differ from a student's biological sex or official school records without parental permission for students under eighteen, unless it conflicts with the employee's religious or moral convictions.
