S.B. No. 810 is a legislative bill aimed at providing protections for public school employees in Texas regarding their use of terms that align with the biological sex of students and other employees. The bill introduces a new section, Section 22.905, to the Education Code, which explicitly prohibits school districts and open-enrollment charter schools from disciplining, retaliating against, or discriminating against employees for addressing students or colleagues using terms consistent with their biological sex.

The bill is set to take effect immediately if it secures a two-thirds majority vote in both houses of the Texas Legislature; otherwise, it will become effective on September 1, 2025. This legislation reflects a growing focus on the rights of school employees in relation to gender identity and biological sex in educational settings.
