得克萨斯州援引一项新的性别隐私法, 调查奥斯汀ISD对一名男学生使用女孩设施的情况。 Texas investigates Austin ISD over a male student using girls’ facilities, citing a new gender privacy law.

德克萨斯州检察长肯·帕克斯顿办公室在接到指控一名男学生在奥斯汀高中使用女孩的洗手间和更衣室的投诉后,对奥斯汀的ISD展开调查,这有可能违反参议院第8号法案,即州《妇女隐私法》。 Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office has launched an investigation into Austin ISD after a complaint alleged a male student used girls’ restrooms and locker rooms at Austin High School, potentially violating Senate Bill 8, the state’s Women’s Privacy Act. 2月提出的申诉称,学校多次接到通知,但并未采取任何行动。 The complaint, filed in February, claims the school was notified multiple times but took no action. Paxton的办公室发出一份通知,要求该区在15天内纠正指称的违法行为,并威胁每日罚款5 000美元,尽管法律允许加重处罚。 Paxton’s office issued a notice requiring the district to correct the alleged violation within 15 days, threatening $5,000 in daily fines—though the law allows for higher penalties. 调查标志着首次依法采取执法行动,该法限制变性人根据出生时指定的性别获得针对性别的设施。 The investigation marks the first enforcement action under the law, which restricts transgender individuals’ access to gender-specific facilities based on sex assigned at birth. Austin ISD没有回应评论请求。 Austin ISD has not responded to requests for comment. 该案反映了目前全国关于学校中变性人权利的辩论,并可能影响得克萨斯州各学区如何使用厕所。 The case reflects ongoing national debates over transgender rights in schools and could impact how school districts across Texas handle restroom access.
