Bill would give South Dakota students right to sue school district if opposite sex encountered in restroom


A bill for the upcoming legislative session gives students the ability to take school districts to court if they “encounter” someone of the opposite sex in a multi-occupancy shower room, changing room or restroom.

District 4 Rep. Fred Deutsch, R-Florence, is the prime sponsor of the bill. Rapid City state legislators — District 33 Rep. Taffy Howard, District 35 Rep. Tina Mulally and District 30 Sen. Julie Frye-Mueller — are three of the nine lawmakers listed as sponsors of HB 1005.

The bill would give students the ability to sue a school district if:

* The student encounters a member of the opposite sex in a multi-occupancy shower room, changing room, or restroom located in a public school building that has been designated for exclusive use by members of the student’s sex.

* An employee of the district gave the member of the opposite sex express permission to use the shower room, changing room, or restroom.

* The use was permitted in accordance with a school district policy.

If a student were to prevail in court, they would be entitled to recover “economic and non-economic damages, together with costs and reasonable attorney's fees,” the bill reads.

2. The republican obsession with transgender people is sick.

They had to find a new group of people to hate since passing laws that discriminate against Black people, Jewish people, and gay people isn’t ok anymore.

I think it must be awful to live life as a republican, when every day is filled with rage and hate.
