Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed a controversial bill on Monday that bans transgender people from using the restroom that aligns with their gender identity in certain spaces. The governor announced the signing in a post to social media. The Texas Women’s Privacy Act, S.B. 8, restricts transgender people from using the bathroom that aligns with their gender identity in government buildings and schools, forcing them instead to use the bathroom designated for their biological sex. The bill also bans women’s domestic violence shelters from providing services to someone not assigned female at birth unless they are younger than 17 and are the child of someone at the shelter.
