SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — California’s attorney general has sued a Southern California school district over its new policy that requires schools to notify parents if their children change their gender identification or pronouns. Attorney General Rob Bonta announced the suit Monday against Chino Valley Unified School District. The district is one of several in Southern California that have adopted similar policies. That’s drawing criticism from Democratic leaders who control state government. Bonta says it amounts to “forced outing” of transgender students and violates their civil rights and the state constitution. The Chino Valley school board president says the district will stand its ground.
