2019-S6479 - Sponsor Memo

                                
 
BILL NUMBER: S6479

SPONSOR: SALAZAR
 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the civil rights law and the education
law, in relation to single occupancy bathroom facilities

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

This bill would designate all single occupancy bathroom facilities in
public places and in all public and private schools as gender neutral.

 
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:

Section 1 amends the civil rights-law by adding a new section (79-o) to
require all single occupancy bathroom facilities in public places,
including but not limited to those located in restaurants, bars, mercan-
tile establishments, factories or state-owned or operated buildings, to
be designated as gender neutral for use by no more than one occupant at
a time or for family or assisted use.

Sections 2 adds a new section 409-m to the education law to require the

board of education or trustees of every school district, or the chancel-
lor for the city school district of New York City, every board of coop-
erative educational services, charter school, and schools within the
state to develop policies to require all single occupancy bathrooms
facilities to be designated as gender neutral.  Section 3 adds a new
subdivision 20 to section 355 of the education law to require state
university trustees to adopt these rules at each institution of the
state university. Section 4 adds a new subdivision 20 to section 6206 to
require the board of trustees to adopt these rules at each institution
of the city university. Section 5 adds a new subdivision 11 to section
6306 to require the board of trustees to adopt these rules at each
community college.

Section 6 is the effective date.

 
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ORIGINAL AND AMENDED VERSION (IF APPLICABLE):

The amended version makes technical amendments to ensure CUNY, SUNY, and
community colleges are included in adopting policies to designate all
single occupancy bathroom facilities as gender neutral.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Access to public spaces should not be a privilege. A person's sexual
orientation and gender identity are not justifications to exclude indi-
viduals from public spaces, including bathrooms. The argument that
transgender individuals must use the restroom that corresponds with
their assigned gender at birth is discriminatory and wrong.  New York
State has been a safe haven for people from all backgrounds and beliefs,
and we must recognize our role as a leader in the fight for transgender
rights. Expanding the civil liberties of transgender individuals is a
task New York must take up with pride. We must acknowledge that this
issue is not about bathrooms, but is instead about fighting for a
person's right to exist in the world free from harassment and discrimi-
nation.

The California legislature recently passed the most progressive bill on
bathroom access in the nation. Now is an opportunity for New York to
join California in its efforts to protect transgender individuals and
expand inclusivity and dignity for all. Modeled after California's bill,
this act would require all publicly accessible bathrooms, including
those in public and private schools, restaurants, bars, mercantile
establishments, factories or state-owned or operated buildings, to
designate all single occupancy bathrooms as gender neutral.
