According to ladyfreethinker.org, a lawsuit was filed against a Wisconsin high school after the Kenosha School district told guidance counselors that trans students must wear bright green wristbands to watch their bathroom use. A young transgender student named Ash Whitaker, who was forced to wear one of these wristbands, was in the news earlier this year when he was denied the chance to run for homecoming king. Ash filed a discrimination lawsuit against Tremper High School previously and it was dropped just a week before the new lawsuit against the district was filed. The Transgender Law Center has filed the lawsuit against the school district on behalf of Ash. According to the lawsuit, "he felt his safety would be even more threatened if he had to wear this visible badge of his transgender status." The Kenosha School District denies all of Ash's allegations.
