Transgender students in Ohio will now be required to use bathrooms designated for their sex assigned at birth, regardless of their gender identity, impacting students from kindergarten through college.
This law extends beyond previous legislation in other states by applying to those over 18, affecting private schools and colleges, thus marking a significant shift in policy regarding bathroom access.
The passage of this bill appears to be a strategic political maneuver by Republicans to galvanize their base and create division between Democrats over transgender rights.
Democrats are concerned that their support for transgender rights could become a political liability, as seen in recent races where prominent Democrat candidates were targeted on this issue.
