California can’t bar teachers from telling parents about student’s gender identity at school, judge rules

The state of California can’t stop public school teachers from informing parents about how their children are expressing their gender identity on campus, a California federal judge ruled late last month.

In a December 22 decision, U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez held that doing so would violate the due process rights of parents as well as violate the First Amendment speech and religious rights of parents and teachers.
