Oppose the Board of Health’s intended regulatory action: 12 VAC 5 ? 660
 

Oppose the Board of Health’s intended regulatory action: “Regulations Governing Biological Sex Specific or Separated Spaces and Activities [12 VAC 5 ?  660]”

• It politicizes the Board of Health, undermining trust in Virginia’s government.

• It limits transgender women’s participation in sports, harming their health and well-being.

• It threatens all women’s privacy by allowing gender inspections for bathroom and changing-room access.

• It codifies discrimination based on gender identity, violating the Virginia Human Rights Act.

• It fails to provide any real protections for women in Virginia.
