The bill, known as the "Given Name Act," mandates that employees of school districts and postsecondary educational institutions must use names and pronouns that align with a student's biological sex as indicated on their birth certificate. It stipulates that employees cannot address a minor using a pronoun or title inconsistent with their biological sex without written permission from the minor's parent. Additionally, employees are prohibited from using any name other than the one listed on the minor's birth certificate without parental consent. The bill also ensures that employees and students cannot face adverse actions for refusing to comply with these requirements.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a mechanism for parents to file complaints with the school board if they believe there has been a violation of this act. The board is required to investigate these complaints and provide a written response within 30 days. The bill replaces the previous provision allowing for a cause of action with a new process for submitting civil complaints, while still allowing individuals to pursue other legal remedies. Overall, the legislation emphasizes the importance of free speech and parental rights in educational settings.
