    Bans on Transgender People Using Public Bathrooms and Facilities According to their Gender Identity

    These laws prohibit transgender people from using bathrooms and facilities—such as locker rooms, shower rooms, changing rooms, and other sex-segregated spaces—according to their gender identity in certain circumstances or places. All of these policies apply to K school settings, and some apply even more broadly to other government-owned buildings and spaces. This can include bathrooms and facilities in government buildings (e.g., city hall, courthouses, state legislative buildings, and more), colleges or universities, jails or prisons, and even in some cases airports, public parks, and much more. Click "Citations" to find more detail about each state's ban, the places or spaces it covers, and more. Please note that these bans do not verb to, for example, private businesses or other non-government-owned spaces, though these spaces may have their own discriminatory policies.
