A new bill would force California school districts to notify parents that their child is gender non-conforming or transgender, sparking backlash from LGBTQ+ activists and organizations. The bill, AB 1314, would require school districts to notify parents in writing within three days after learning a student is identifying as a gender that doesn't align with official records or their birth certificate. "Parents play a critical role in nurturing and supporting children and they cannot be removed from the equation," Assemblymember Bill Essayli (R-Riverside), who sponsored the bill, said during a Monday news conference outside Jurupa Valley High School.
