bathroom-bill/

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) โ€” Utahโ€™s H.B. 257 came a step closer to being passed
on Friday, Jan. 19, after the State House passed it 52-17, mostly along
party lines. It will now move to the State Senate.

The bill, officially known as Sex-based Designations for Privacy, Anti-
Bullying, and Womenโ€™s Opportunities, is co-sponsored by Rep. Kera
Birkeland and Sen. Daniel McCay. It would largely prevent transgender
persons from using publicly owned or funded bathrooms that differ from the
sex they were assigned at birth

The bill would carve out an exemption for transgender persons who have
undergone sexual reassignment surgery and for those who have legally
changed their sex on their birth certificate.

While the bill would require government entities to provide โ€œsingle-
occupantโ€ restroom facilities in new construction, it would only require
entities to โ€œconsiderโ€ the feasibility of retrofitting existing
facilities. The bill also has no appropriated funds attached to it at this
time.

The bill also states it would establish โ€œelements of the crime of
emergency reporting abuse for making repeated false reports alleging a
violation of a sex designation in a publicly owned, publicly funded
restroom, shower, or locker room facility where the general public has an
expectation of privacy.โ€

Six Republicans were reported as absent or not voting. Three other
Republicans broke ranks and voted Nay on the bill. See how each House
member voted below.

The bill will move next to the Senate Business and Labor Committee for
debate before making it to the Senate floor.

Following the passage of the bill in the House, Utah Democratic Party
Chair Diane Lewis released the following statement:

โ€œThe latest anti-transgender bill passed by the House, which bans members
of the transgender community from using public restrooms corresponding
with their gender identity, is a shameful, discriminatory attack on a
community that is already extremely marginalized and vulnerable.
Unfortunately, despite trans people making up just 1% of our stateโ€™s
population, Republican legislators have spent a massively disproportionate
amount of time legislating their basic human rights.

โ€œNot only does House Bill 257 perpetuate harmful and dangerous stereotypes
about transgender Utahns, it is also not based on any facts or data, which
the sponsor herself admitted. Repeatedly using vulnerable communities as a
political punching bag, as the supermajority has done, is shameful and
self-serving, and Utahns will hold extreme Republicans accountable for
their votes in November.โ€
