AZ SB1040

Public schools must provide reasonable accommodations to any person who requests in writing and is unwilling or unable to use multi-occupancy restrooms, changing facilities, or sleeping quarters designated for their sex.

Reasonable accommodations include access to single-occupancy restrooms or changing facilities, or use of employee restrooms or changing facilities.

Accommodations cannot include access to restrooms or changing facilities designated for the opposite sex while opposite-sex persons are present or could be present.

Persons denied reasonable accommodations or who encounter opposite-sex individuals in designated facilities have a private cause of action against the public school unless undue hardship is demonstrated, with a two-year statute of limitations.

Prevailing parties may recover monetary damages for psychological, emotional, and physical harm, plus reasonable attorney fees and costs; "sex" is defined as immutable biological sex determined by anatomy and genetics at birth.
