Requires public schools that receive federal K–12 funds to get a parent’s permission before changing a minor student's gender marker, pronouns, preferred name on school records or changing sex‑segregated accommodations such as locker rooms or bathrooms. The rule applies to “covered students” — minors in elementary school or the middle grades — and is tied to receipt of funds under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act.
Referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce.
