California school district sues Gavin Newsom over new gender-identity law

Lawsuit centers on rule requiring school staff to notify parents if their children change their gender identification or pronouns

A Southern California school district involved in an ongoing legal battle with the state over the district’s gender-identity policy sued Gavin Newsom on Tuesday over a new law banning districts from requiring that parents be notified of their child’s gender identification change.

The Chino Valley Uunified school district and a handful of parents argued the law violates the rights of parents protected under the US constitution.
