Bathroom Choice Must Match Gender on Drivers License

March 4th, 2015 by Mike Vasilinda

Legislation approved this afternoon by a House Committee would prohibit people from using a single sex bathroom of a sex other than the gender listed on a person’s drivers license. The bill is designed to keep people under going gender modification from picking and choosing which bathroom they want to use. Nadine Smith of Equality Florida opposed the bill, saying it could lead to lawsuits and fistfights.

“Because its poorly thought out, I don’t think you or anyone else wants to be asked to produce a drivers license when they are entering a rest room by somebody looking to invoke this law” says the equality Florida Director.

9 Republicans voted for the bill. Four Democrats against. Equality Florida says the legislation will open the door for anyone to sue a business because they did not monitor who was using which restroom.
