Illinois District Violated Transgender Student’s Rights, U.S. Says
CHICAGO — Federal education authorities, staking out their firmest position yet on an increasingly contentious issue, found Monday that an Illinois school district violated anti-discrimination laws when it did not allow a transgender student who identifies as a girl and participates on a girls’ sports team to change and shower in the girls’ locker room without restrictions.
Education officials said the decision was the first of its kind on the rights of transgender students, which are emerging as a new cultural battleground in public schools across the country. In previous cases, federal officials had been able to reach settlements giving access to transgender students in similar situations. But in this instance, the school district in Palatine, Ill., has not yet come to an agreement, prompting the federal government to threaten sanctions. The district, northwest of Chicago, has indicated a willingness to fight for its policy in court.
Yep, it’s sickening how 0bama and his lapdog administration support the depravity of a small minority insisting to deprive the majority of their privacy and rights.
Scumbags, your records are public property, jagoffs.
There are less than 5 million homosexuals and transgenders in the United States. That's all.
Why are they dominating the conversation?
All the more reason to home school.
It would seem Fairfax county officials are eager to have boys and girls sharing rest room and showering together after gym class.
Exactly.
Yep, and they don’t have the courage to admit it before the election. Cowards all!
Lefties and perverts claim they don’t recruit yet they can’t keep their hands off the young and innocent under the rubric of education and tolerance.
Why are they dominating the conversation?
Because they're heavily overrepresented in the nation's journalism system.
You know if people want to keep secrets, it’s because they believe the truth would get them into big trouble.
Sniveling wimps. If they truly believe in their gender ideology, then stand up and be proud. Go to bat in the free marketplace of ideas.
Fairfax County is chock full of libtards.
Until these leftist demonicrats are tried, convicted, sentenced and publicly hanged for giving aid and comfort to the enemy, it isn’t going to get any better.
Well said, my FRiend. Like the rats they are they avoid the sunlight.
School policy is to be kept secret? This is insane.
Vote the current board out.
Barney Rubble’s kid?
