Dueling protests regarding the rights of transgender students emerged outside the Baltimore County Board of Education’s meeting Tuesday night. A group of parents and children with the group P.A.S.S. (Parental Alliance for Safer Schools in Baltimore County) gathered to protest the county’s policy that follows federal mandates allowing transgender students to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their gender identity. The group also wants Baltimore County to force trans athletes to compete on teams that match the gender on their birth certificates, rather than their gender identity.
