Victory for our client! After Transgender Law Center sent a demand letter on behalf of a South Carolina student who was suspended for using the boys’ bathroom, the district is reversing its discriminatory policy: http://transgenderlawcenter.org/archives/12800
“We thank Horry County Schools for finally turning around and doing the right thing by committing to treat transgender students fairly,” said Kris Hayashi, executive director of Transgender Law Center. “It is both illegal and wrong to ban transgender students from using the restroom matching the gender they live as every day. The law is clear, and we expect other districts to follow their lead and fall in line – or face the legal consequences.”
