KJAN: National group sues Linn-Mar School District over its policy for transgender students

A national parental rights group has filed a lawsuit challenging an eastern Iowa school district’s policy for transgender students. The lawsuit accuses the Linn-Mar School District of allowing children to make decisions about their gender identity without any parental involvement. Linn-Mar students in 7th through 12th grades may use different names or pronouns at school and use the restroom that matches their gender identity — and choose whether their parents are notified.
