Relative to the definition of gender identity as it applies to lawfully segregated facilities. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend existing law by adding a new definition for "gender identity" that explicitly distinguishes it from "sex" and "sexual orientation," and it states that access to facilities and activities that are lawfully segregated by sex, such as restrooms, locker rooms, educational programs, and athletic activities, will be determined by an individual's anatomical sex (male or female) rather than their gender identity.
