US EditionWorker files complaint to challenge Trump's federal transgender bathroom ban
- A civilian Illinois National Guard worker filed a complaint on Monday against Trump administration rules barring transgender federal employees from restroom use aligned with their gender.
- The complaint, filed by the ACLU for LeAnne Withrow, challenges a January 20 executive order that calls prior Supreme Court rulings allowing gender identity-based restroom access "legally untenable."
- The filing seeks class status for all transgender and intersex federal employees, including civilian staff of the National Guard, U.S. Army, and Department of Defense.
- The complaint contends that the rules violate federal employment discrimination laws by banning transgender federal workers from using restrooms matching their gender identity, challenging the Trump administration’s ongoing efforts since 2017 to restrict protections for transgender individuals, including bans on military service and limitations on healthcare coverage.
- This legal challenge may affect ongoing federal policies restricting transgender rights and calls into question the administration's redefinition of civil rights protections under Title VII.
