Two Ohio House Republicans have introduced the “Affirming Families First Act,” which would state that referring to and raising a child in line with the child’s biological sex—such as using a child’s given name and sex-based pronouns—cannot, by itself, be treated as abuse, neglect, or contrary to a child’s best interests in certain custody-related decisions.
The US Supreme Court has issued a preliminary ruling in Mirabelli v. Bonta, reinstating an injunction against California school policies that conceal students' gender transitions from parents. The decision upholds parents' constitutional rights to direct their children's upbringing, particularly in matters affecting mental health like gender dysphoria. The ruling comes amid ongoing debates over parental involvement in schools.

A U.S. District Court judge has issued a permanent injunction against California's policy requiring teachers to conceal students' gender transitions from parents. The ruling, from Judge Roger T. Benitez, stems from a class-action lawsuit filed by two Christian teachers. It affirms parents' and teachers' constitutional rights to share and receive information on students' gender identity.
