Ohio lawmakers have passed a bill banning biological males from using girls' bathrooms in K-12 schools and colleges. The bill, known as SB104, ensures that students must use restrooms that align with their sex assigned at birth. The legislation advanced at the Statehouse on Wednesday and now heads to Governor Mike DeWine's desk, where he is expected to sign it into law. This development follows a broader national debate on the inclusion of transgender individuals in gender-specific spaces.
