Transgender Residents Challenge Idaho's Bathroom Ban in Federal Lawsuit

Six transgender residents are suing Idaho over a bathroom ban set to take effect in July, arguing it is the strictest in the nation and unconstitutional.
The law mandates restroom use based on assigned sex at birth, with severe penalties including jail time for violations.
Plaintiffs, represented by the ACLU and Lambda Legal, argue the law forces them into dangerous situations and could lead to health issues from restroom avoidance.
