Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 2 mixed.
Lawsuits if opposite-sex entry allowed
You can sue a covered facility if you use a restroom or changing room for your sex and meet a person of the opposite sex because the facility allowed it or failed to act. You can also sue if the facility makes you share sleeping quarters with a person of the opposite sex. You must file within two years. If you win, you can get court orders and your attorney fees. These rights start November 1, 2025.
Exceptions and ADA help in prisons
Staff may enter opposite-sex rooms to clean, repair, give medical or law enforcement help, handle disasters, or stop serious threats. Facilities may set policies to help people protected by the Americans with Disabilities Act and elderly people who need aid. They may create single-occupancy restrooms, changing rooms, or sleeping areas, and may change a room’s sex designation. The Department of Corrections must write rules to carry this out. These rules apply starting November 1, 2025.
Single-sex rooms in state prisons
Beginning November 1, 2025, every state corrections facility must label all multi-occupancy restrooms, changing rooms, and sleeping areas for male-only or female-only use. Only people of the listed sex may use each room. Facilities must take reasonable steps to protect privacy from the opposite sex.
