Elderly residents of care homes in California could soon have to share rooms with members of the opposite sex, after a pro-LGBT Bill was proposed in March.
The controversial SB 219 Bill would allow a transsexual person to occupy a room and use washing facilities based on the gender of their choosing. SB 219 was introduced in the California State Senate in February and it was amended by a pro-LGBT senator in March.
The law would prevent any care home residents or staff from objecting and there are no exemptions on religious grounds.
