California bans forced outing of LGBTQ+ students as Gov. Gavin Newsom signs landmark law

Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed AB 1955, prohibiting schools from outing LGBTQ+ students without permission, with resources for private gender conversations.

Assemblymember Chris Ward highlighted that teachers should not act as the 'gender police,' respecting parent-child relationships, amidst rising attacks on LGBTQ+ youth rights nationwide.
