Education WA GOP lawmakers press schools chief on gender identity disclosure policies

Following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling this week, Washington House Republicans are seeking answers from the state’s top public schools official on policies related to gender identity and parental rights.

On Monday, the high court sided against California in a case involving the state’s ban on public schools disclosing students’ gender identity information to their parents. The court said parents challenging the policy will likely succeed in proving that it violates their right to “direct the upbringing and education of their children.”

The Supreme Court reinstated a lower court ruling blocking the state from enforcing its ban. The underlying litigation is still before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

In a March 4 letter to Superintendent of Public Instruction Chris Reykdal, House GOP lawmakers argue that there is “no meaningful difference” between California’s challenged policy and Washington’s.
