11 States Sue Obama Administration Over Transgender Bathroom Directive

AUSTIN, Texas - Texas and 10 other states are suing the Obama administration over a new directive about transgender students in public schools.

The lawsuit announced Tuesday also includes Oklahoma, Alabama, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Tennessee, Maine, Louisiana, Utah, Arizona and Georgia. The challenge follows a federal directive to U.S. schools this month to let transgender students use the bathrooms and locker rooms that match their gender identity.

Conservative states had vowed defiance since the Justice Department handed down the guidance. U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch has said “there is no room in our schools for discrimination.”

The lawsuit accuses the Obama administration of “running roughshod over commonsense policies” that protect children. It asks a judge to declare the directive unlawful.

There's nothing common sense about anything anymore.

Welcome to the U.S.A, where we b*tch and moan about everything - but yet still elect the same ding-a-lings into political office. ala city/county/state and CONgress!

This boils down to money - once again!

If the bathroom is a single-stall - make it first come, first served, and one at a time!

If it is multi-stall - then you'll effectively need three...
One for people born as male, one for people born as female, and one for the confused liberals.

Trouble is that everyone already has two - and building a third one everywhere to appease the POSPOTUS-loving turd, liberals will cost a bunch of money!

Good this is just a diversion. How can we get this worked up over.03 % of the population. Go where you feel you need to go. Many facilities now have a single bathroom that states Family. Why cant they use this. I think Mooooochelle is a Tranny

First, there is no such thing as a gender identity anymore than a chicken that thinks it is a dog. Secondly, the DOJ is pushing this as a civil rights issue and, if that is true, how to they justify pushing this on some bathrooms and not others? Obama's daughters attend a private school exempt from this so their rights are being violated. Same goes for Congress and the white house.

It should be all 50 as it's unconstitutional and a guise to keep voters away from real issues facing this country.

Nobody is reading the Tenth Amendment here. They are throwing money at lawyers instead.

Read it, people, then tell BO to pound sand!
