HE IS EXPECTED TO CHANGE
GUIDELINES GUIDELINES FOR
TRANSITION STUDENTS IN --
TRANSGENDER STUDENTS AND
BATHROOMS.
PAUL MUELLER WITH THE IMPACT
THIS COULD HAVE.
WITH THE NEW GUIDELINES FROM
THE PRESIDENT TRANSGENDER
STUDENTS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO
USE BATHROOMS AND LOCKER ROOMS
MATCHING THEIR CHOSEN GENDER
IDENTITIES.
THEY DON'T KNOW IF THEY WILL
BE SAFE IF THEY USE THE
BATHROOM.
Reporter: WHAT HE HAD WORKED
SO HARD TO CHANGE.
WE ARE STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL
RIGHT NOW.
I WOULD BE VERY SCARED AGAIN.
AND I WOULD FEEL UNSAFE IN
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Reporter: HE WORKED TO GET
THE SCHOOL DEPARTMENT TO CREATE
A TRANSGENDER BATHROOM POLICY,
THEY NEVER DID AND NOW THE
REVERSAL OF THE GUIDELINES THAT
ALLOWED STUDENTS TO USE
BATHROOMS THAT CORRESPONDENTED
WITH THEIR GENDER IDENTITIES --
CRANS WITH THEIR GENDER
IDENTITIES -- CORRESPONDS WITH
THEIR GENDER IDENTITIES.
THEY BELIEVE THIS IS NOT AN
ISSUE TO BE HANDLED AT THE
FEDERAL LEVEL.
THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE
INVOLVED IN.
THE BIGGEST CONCERN AGAIN IS
THE MESSAGE TO THE CHILDREN
THAT THE PRESIDENT ISN'T
LOOKING OUT FOR THEM.
Reporter: HE SAYS KIDS NEED
TO BE CONCERNED WITH MORE
IMPORTANT THINGS, NOT THE
BATHROOMS THEY USE.
THEY SHOULD BE IN SCHOOL
LEARNING AND NOT WORRIED ABOUT
SAFETY.
NOT WORRIED ABOUT BULLYING.
Reporter: THIS WOULDN'T
IMMEDIATELY IMPACT PUBLIC
SCHOOLS STUDENTS.
MANY EXPERTS SAY FEDERAL LAW
PROTECTS ATTENTION STUDENTS NO
MATTER WHAT.
-- TRANSGENDER STUDENTS NO
MATTER WHAT.
OTHER DISTRICTS, WHAT ARE
THEY REQUIRED TO DO?
Reporter: YOU KNOW WHAT,
UNLESS THERE IS A LAW IN PLACE,
A SPOKESPERSON TOLD ME THEY
WILL SEE HOW THINGS SHAKE OUT.
