Public School System Abolishes Sex-Specific Restrooms to Usher in Gender-Neutral Bathrooms to ‘Increase Gender Equity’ (VIDEO)

The Chicago Public Schools system will no longer have girls’ and boys’ bathrooms, but instead will have gender-neutral restrooms where all sexes are welcome.

The Chicago Public Schools system launched an initiative to abolish sex-specific bathrooms and transform them into restrooms where “all who feel comfortable are welcome to use this restroom” regardless of their gender.

CPS Title IX officer Camie Pratt introduced the sweeping new changes in a video posted on social media.

“On top of ensuring that each of our schools is a safe learning environment, we’re also taking steps to create more inclusive and supportive schools,” Pratt says in the video. “One change that will be implemented this school year relates to our school bathrooms.”

“In compliance with new federal guidelines, all CPS students and staff will have fair and equitable access to bathroom facilities that align with their gender identity,” she continues.
