Anti-Trans Schooling Bills Hurt Kids

The proposed Arizona Senate Bill 1166, currently under consideration, raises significant concerns. It appears to undermine the affirmation and support for transgender youth in educational settings by restricting the use of appropriate pronouns and names. Furthermore, the bill's requirement for schools to notify parents if a child is suspected of being transgender could potentially put vulnerable students at risk. It is crucial to consider the potential harm such policies could inflict on young individuals. Therefore, it is requested to reconsider the implications of this bill and seek alternatives that respect and protect the identities of all students.
