The attorney general filed an amicus brief Tuesday, which is a legal document that offers additional information by someone who is not a party to a lawsuit; it argued in favor of the Martinsville School District's “right” to restrict the bathrooms to the basis of biological sex. The amicus added that Title IX “expressly permits sex-segregated restrooms” and that it requires equal opportunities only based on sex, and not gender identity.
“Boys’ bathrooms are for boys, and girls’ bathrooms are for girls,” the attorney general said in a statement. “I realize this concept is difficult for leftist America-haters to fathom, but most Hoosiers are rightly perplexed that we would even need to defend such basic common sense.”
