Plain‑English summary, cross‑checked against the official bill text.

This bill would make new rules for public restrooms and changing rooms, letting people sue if their privacy or safety is not protected.

Our take

What we think, in plain words.

This bill would give people a new way to protect their privacy and safety in public restrooms and changing rooms. If a business or public building does not follow the new rules, people could take them to court. This could help make sure these places are safe and private for everyone. Some might say these new rules could be hard for businesses to follow or cost too much money to change their facilities. But supporters believe it is important to give people the power to make sure their privacy is respected.
