Judge rules transgender people won’t face criminal charges for using Idaho public restrooms
The ruling extends protections statewide after the judge found the law’s vague exceptions could lead to arbitrary enforcement, according to the order.
- A federal judge blocked key parts of an Idaho law that criminalized transgender people using public restrooms that match their gender identity.
- The law applied even to privately owned buildings open to the public and introduced criminal penalties of up to five years in prison.
- While the ruling did not entirely invalidate the law, it set limits on enforcement against single-user restrooms and multi-user facilities without available single-user restrooms.
