Amendment #10 to S735

An Amendment to Allow Discretion When Dealing with the Privacy and Dignity of Minors

Representatives Markey of Dartmouth and Nangle of Lowell move to amend the bill in section 2, in line 11, by inserting after the words “gender identity” the following:

“; provided further, that with regard to the prohibition on gender-identity discrimination, this section shall not apply to the locker rooms of any entity in which its primary purpose is promoting and maintaining physical and mental health through physical exercise and instruction of minor children, provided such entity has a written policy and guidelines which balances the availability of facilities of the entity, the privacy and dignity of the person defined in clause 59 of section 7 of chapter 4, and the privacy and dignity of any other person attending the entity.”
