| Description | HB 752 prohibits transgender individuals from entering a bathroom, changing room, or other facilities aligning with their gender identity in government buildings or public accommodations. The violations carry steep penalties; the first violation is a misdemeanor with up to one year in county jail while a second violation is a felony with up to five years in state prison. A fourth violation carries up to life in prison. On June 16th, 2026 a federal judge partially blocked the law stating “The Court enjoins enforcement of H.B. 752 as against all transgender people who seek to use a restroom in a government-owned building or place of public accommodation in Idaho consistent with their gender identity wherever: (1) the covered restroom designated for use by sex is a single-user facility; or (2) when a single-user restroom is not available because no single-user restroom exists on the same floor as the multi-user facilities or all single-user restrooms on the same floor as the multi-user facilities are occupied or not in service”. |

edited by mineszilla. Making some small fixes. Despite the partial block, changing rooms were not affected meaning the “no protections” status should remain. The partial block actually puts trans people in further legal risk.
