Parents’ Bill of Rights and Remedies

This bill expands parental rights by requiring schools and government agencies to get written parental consent before using a different name or pronouns for a child. Schools must also provide parents access to all educational and health records, including counseling notes, and staff are prohibited from withholding any information about a child’s well-being from parents. Parents can sue for violations, with minimum penalties of $500,000 against agencies and $20,000 against individual employees; public funds cannot be used to cover these costs. Any past violations must be disclosed to parents within six months or the same penalties apply.
