Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita has come out in support of a school district that wants to maintain bathrooms based on biological sex.

Metropolitan School District of Martinsville filed an appeal on August 24 after a U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit reversed its decision to “preserve the autonomy of school boards to make decisions.”

Fox News reported that a lower court’s previous ruling decided that Martinsville and the Vigo County School Corporation must allow students to use the bathroom that reflects their gender identity. The decision came after students filed lawsuits in 2021.
