NJ parents group hits out at AG Matthew Platkin over transgender student policiesBy Steve Janoski
June 26, 2023
A New Jersey parents group ripped the state’s Democratic attorney general after he moved to halt policies requiring teachers to notify parents when their child wishes to change their gender identity.
New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin filed the civil rights complaints Thursday against three Monmouth County school districts — Middletown Township, Marlboro Township and Manalapan-Englishtown Regional Boards of Education.
The policies mandate that staff notify parents when students express a desire to change names, pronouns, or bathroom and/or locker accommodations.
In a series of complaints filed in a New Jersey Superior Court, Platkin argued that the policies are discriminatory and would “harm our kids and pose severe risk to their safety.”
But one group of parents vocally disagrees.
