In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica provides updates on two prominent legal stories. She delves into the Menendez brothers' ongoing legal challenges, including their bids for resentencing, a habeas petition, and clemency, explaining the possible outcomes. Jessica also analyzes a proposed bill by Congresswoman Nancy Mace that seeks to ban transgender individuals from using bathrooms aligned with their gender identity in federal buildings. She breaks down the legal scrutiny surrounding such laws and relevant court precedents. Happy Thanksgiving!Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:1️⃣ Menendez Brothers Resentencing Claim: They're pushing for resentencing based on their model behavior in prison and the argument that they were victims of severe sexual abuse by their father.2️⃣ Proposed Transgender Bathroom Bill: Congresswoman Nancy Mace introduced a bill aiming to ban transgender individuals from using bathrooms aligning with their gender identity in federal buildings.3️⃣ Classification of Law: The bill's focus on transgender individuals can be seen as a quasi-suspect classification, which is subject to intermediate scrutiny.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

Sarah McBride just became the first transgender person elected to the United States Congress. A Democrat, she worked for the Human Rights Campaign before serving in the Delaware State Senate.  McBride will be sworn in in January, but opponents of trans rights in Congress have already mobilized against her: Representative Nancy Mace of South Carolina introduced a bathroom bill that would require McBride to use the men's bathroom, and Speaker Mike Johnson made a statement denying trans identity altogether. McBride talks with David Remnick about the climate in Congress, how she's responding to attacks—and what she was actually hoping to accomplish in Congress.

Last Monday, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) introduced a resolution requiring Members, officers, and employees of the House of Representatives to use bathrooms corresponding to their biological sex at the Capitol and in House office buildings. Then, on Wednesday, Mace released the text of a bill that would establish the same rule for all individuals in federal buildings. Mace said she introduced the bill in response to Sarah McBride's (D-DE) election to the House. McBride is the first transgender person elected to Congress.

After months of campaigning, the Ohio Legislature returned to the Ohio Statehouse this week.

Ohio Statehouse Scoop Host Jo Ingles reports this week, majority Republicans in the Ohio House and Senate will choose who will guide them in the next General Assembly. Ohio Public Media Statehouse News Bureau Chief Karen Kasler and Reporter Sarah Donaldson also join in to talk about legislation that could be coming soon in the Lame Duck session of this legislature. And former Ohio House Speaker, Larry Householder, who is serving 20 years in prison on corruption charges, is asking President-elect Donald Trump to grant him clemency.

A bill that would require transgender students to use bathrooms that correspond to their assigned sex at birth is on its way to Gov. Mike DeWine. It's one of many bills that will be passed in what is known as the lame duck session. That's the time between the end of a general election and the end of the legislative term in December. Over the next few weeks expect a flurry of legislation from the statehouse. We will talk about the “bathroom bill” and what the priorities are for lawmakers in the last weeks of the session on the Friday “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable.”

  The State Auditor's office has released a statement of discontent ever since his office has been flooded with bogus complaints about transgender people using the wrong bathrooms. The complaints are largely an act of defiance by activists, flooding the online complaint forms. In a statement, Dougall said his office has become unwilling "bathroom monitors." Bill sponsor Rep. Kira Berkland responded in a statement saying that backlash was expected, but the bill succeeds in protecting women and girls. State Auditor John Dougall shares his input with D2.

Parents were ready to protest in the Salt Lake City School District this morning... over the way elementary school children were going to be told about the new bathroom law. the measure that requires students use the facility corresponding to their sex at birth.

Ohio's House Bill 183, termed the "Bathroom Bill," mandates that K-12 public schools and higher education institutions designate bathrooms based on biological sex. Introduced by Republican Representatives Beth Lear and Adam Bird, it aims to ensure safety, according to its proponents. However, the bill has encountered significant opposition, with over 100 detractors arguing it discriminates against transgender students. A committee vote is imminent, with significant Republican support anticipated.Arizona's SB1097, proposed by Senator Justine Wadsack, seeks to make school board elections partisan. The bill has passed initial stages with party-line support in the Republican-majority Senate and House committee. The Arizona School Boards Association opposes the measure, citing concerns about partisanship in educational governance. Advocates argue the change would better inform voters by revealing candidates' political affiliations. The full House vote is pending, with significant implications for party representation in elections.A Pew Research Center survey reveals that 51% of Americans believe public K-12 education is heading in the wrong direction, citing insufficient focus on core academic subjects, politicization by teachers, and inadequate funding as key concerns. Only 16% see it as moving in the right direction. Partisan differences are notable, with Republicans and Democrats diverging on the reasons for their dissatisfaction. The survey highlights a growing discontent with the direction of educational policy in the U.S.In Portland, Oregon, a lawsuit has been filed against Portland Public Schools, Multnomah County, and a nonprofit after a 9-year-old girl was allegedly raped by classmates at Scott Elementary School and its after-school program. Seeking $9 million, the suit claims negligence in monitoring and training, failing to report the incident promptly, and inadequately handling the victim's complaints of earlier sexual harassment. The legal action underscores serious concerns about student safety and response protocols in educational settings.Support the showDONATE TODAY!www.ParentsRightsInEducation.com
