Paxton Shopped Transgender Policy to Second School District
posted on May 27 - 08:36 AM
When Texas Attorney General Ken Paxtonannounced Wednesday that he had filed a lawsuit challenging federal guidelines for transgender students, he said it was to protect a Texas school district that had adopted a policy requiring students to use bathrooms according to the gender cited on their birth certificates. He didn't say his office asked the district to pass the policy. Nor did he say what The Texas Tribune has now learned: that his staff had approached another North Texas school district about pursuing the policy — and the lawsuit — 10 days earlier.
