Bill Summary
Concerning human rights commission rules on gender segregated facilities.
AI Summary
This bill requires the Washington State Human Rights Commission to eliminate a specific rule, WAC 162-32-060, which deals with gender-segregated facilities, and prohibits the commission from creating any new rules on this topic in the future. The Human Rights Commission is the state agency responsible for enforcing anti-discrimination laws, and gender-segregated facilities refer to separate spaces, such as restrooms or locker rooms, designated for different genders.
