Public school officials in Loudoun County, Virginia, were warned May 28 to revoke their suspension of a teacher for opposing the use of students’ preferred pronouns, or face further legal action.

Tanner Cross, a teacher at Leesburg Elementary School, was suspended after speaking publicly May 26 during a school board meeting in opposition to the system’s proposed policy that teachers must use the pronouns preferred by students rather than the pronouns consistent with their biological sex.
