Bathroom Bills are Dangerous!

The progression of Senate Bill 1182, the Arizona Accommodations For All Children Act, through the Fifty-sixth Legislature 2nd Regular session, raises significant concerns. This bill, which addresses accommodations for showers in public schools, has passed the Senate with a vote of 16 in favor, 13 against, and 1 not voting, and is now pending in the House Education Committee. It is crucial to consider the potential harm such legislation could cause, as it may increase danger without enhancing safety, and has the potential to prompt attacks on both cis and trans individuals. Numerous national health and anti-sexual assault organizations have voiced opposition to similar bills. Therefore, it is requested that you reconsider the implications of this bill and work towards a more inclusive solution.
