TOPEKA, Kan. — Lane Rozin wakes up every day in fear.
As SB 180 — a new Kansas law that is among the most sweeping measures targeting transgender rights in the country – goes into effect on Saturday, Rozin is preparing to live a life that is more cautious.
“Now when I go out in public I will be concerned of am I safe enough to use this restroom? Is the staff in this building going to support that I use this restroom? If something bad happens, what do I do?” said Rozin, a 20-year-old trans man who lives in Lawrence and attends the University of Kansas.
