Court Blocks Chino Valley Schools' Discriminatory Transgender Policy

A judge in San Bernardino has issued a temporary restraining order halting the enforcement of a policy by the Chino Valley Unified School District in California that required schools to inform parents if a student identifies as transgender or gender-nonconforming. The ruling comes amidst a larger legal battle between conservative-leaning school districts and state leaders over LGBTQ+ issues. The controversial policy prompted a civil rights investigation and lawsuit by the state attorney general. The judge's decision will be further discussed in a hearing scheduled for October 13.
