Greg Abbott just signed legislation restricting transgender people from using many public restrooms matching their gender identities. That means the bill impacts transgender, nonbinary, and intersex Texans. LGBTQ+ advocacy groups in Texas criticized the signing of the bill, saying it will further stigmatize already marginalized communities in the Lone Star State. Abbott’s prioritization of the bathroom restrictions marks a shift in policy for the Texas leader. In 2018, said he was not going to prioritize the passage of a bathroom bill.
