California’s K–12 schools will be required to provide students with access to gender-neutral restrooms during school hours, due to a state bill signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom this week.

Senate Bill 760, introduced in February by State Sen. Josh Newman (D-Fullerton), mandates that all schools should have at least one single-use gender-neutral restroom—but allows them to keep traditional gender-segregated bathrooms as well.
