Critics said AB 1314 would imperil transgender youth. The bill’s Republican sponsors argue they’re standing up for parents’ rights.
came to a halt in an Assembly committee Monday, April 10.
Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi, D-Torrance, who chairs the Education Committee, announced he would not schedule a hearing on, which would give schools three days to notify parents in writing once a school employee learns a student is identifying as a gender that doesn’t align with their birth certificate or other official records.
The bill, sponsored by GOP Assemblymember Bill Essayli of western Riverside County and Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher of Yuba City, faced opposition fromadvocates who warned it could harm transgender youths whose parents aren’t accepting of their gender identity. Muratsuchi said in a news release he wouldn’t set a hearing “not only because the bill is proposing bad policy, but also because a hearing would potentially provide a forum for increasingly hateful rhetoric targeting LGBTQ youth.”
