The proposed bill, known as the "student restroom privacy act," mandates that educational institutions in Michigan ensure that multiple occupancy restrooms, changing areas, and similar facilities are used based on the biological sex of individuals, as indicated on their original birth certificates. This requirement aims to protect the privacy of students from individuals of the opposite biological sex in settings where students may be undressed. The bill defines key terms such as "biological sex," "educational institution," and "multiple occupancy restroom or changing area" to clarify its scope and application.

Additionally, the bill outlines specific exceptions where individuals may enter facilities designated for the opposite biological sex, including custodial, maintenance, or inspection purposes, rendering medical assistance, accompanying a student needing help, or when the facility has been temporarily designated for use by the individual's biological sex. The legislation emphasizes the importance of privacy in educational settings while allowing for necessary exceptions to accommodate various situations.
