CATHOLIC STUDENT SUES FAIRFAX SCHOOL BOARD OVER TRANSGENDER PROTECTIONS

A Fairfax County Public Schools student is suing the school board, sayings its policy aimed at protecting the rights of transgender students violate the rights of others and violates the state constitution.

The lawsuit was filed by the conservative group America First Legal — founded by former Donald Trump adviser Stephen Miller — on behalf of an unnamed Fairfax high school senior. It alleges that the school district’s policy, which allows students to use facilities that match their gender identity and requires the use of a student’s chosen pronouns and name, are “fundamentally at odds with her religious beliefs” as a practicing Roman Catholic.
