"The woman notified the school on January 10 of the 'violation of the recent law passed by the Texas legislature that requires students to use the private facilities based on their biological sex.' After receiving no response from the school after a second complaint, the woman contacted Texas Values, which provided her with a form letter threatening the school."
"'I hope that the parent and her daughter can find some relief and put a stop to this or else the school must face consequences for not following the Texas Women's Privacy Act,' said Mary Elizabeth Castle, Director of Government Relations for the organization, in a blog post advertising the letter they coached her to write."
A Texas mother submitted a formal complaint to the state Attorney General's office regarding Austin High School's alleged non-compliance with Texas's bathroom bill enacted in December. The woman claims her daughter reported that a transgender student used female restrooms and private spaces. After the school ignored her initial complaints in January, the mother contacted Texas Values, a right-wing anti-trans organization that provided her with a threatening form letter. When the school continued to disregard this correspondence, Texas Values coached the mother to file a formal complaint with the Attorney General's office. The organization subsequently publicized the complaint, with its director expressing hope for consequences against the school for non-compliance with the Texas Women's Privacy Act.
