TRENTON -- Transgender students at New Jersey's public schools were given new layers of protection under a bill that Gov. Chris Christie signed into law Friday.
The legislation (S3067/A4652) -- which takes effect immediately -- requires the state education commissioner to draft specific guidelines to help schools address "the needs" of transgender students and establish policies that "ensure a supportive and nondiscriminatory environment" for those students.
Schools will be expressly told that they cannot force transgender students to use bathrooms or locker rooms that conflict with their gender identity.
Instead, schools would be be mandated to provide "reasonable alternative arrangements if needed to ensure a student's safety and comfort."
Schools will also be required to make sure transgender students are addressed by the name and pronoun they prefer, regardless of whether a legal name change has occurred.

Gone?
Bingo! Normalizing the insanity of .0001 percent at the expense of the rest.
to draft specific guidelines to help schools address “the needs” of transgender students
What they need is mental health help. What they will get is pandering!
“Lots of folks here on FR wants Christie to replace Sessions as AG.”
Don’t count me on that list. I’d vote for Tom Fitton, Jay Seculow, or perhaps Trey Gowdy for AG. Someone who doesn’t sleep and has a perpetual erection for the RATs illegal activities. Someone who will go through the DOJ like Grant through Atlanta. We need young guns, not these septuagenarians whose getup and go has done gone and went. I want an AG who hangs “particular body parts” of those he’s prosecuted on the wall behind his desk, and invites the press in to film the array.
“One can see why Chris Christie is concerned with transgender issues. “
Wow! Looks like he has a “camel toe!”
Chris Christie. Just another Republican jackass. Kowtowing to the mentally deficient to imperil the rest of us. Sickening.
Lol, you should write the want ad for the position.
A disappointment.
