"The Washington State Senate voted down an attempt Wednesday to repeal a policy that allows transgender people to use restrooms and locker rooms that match their gender identity.

Supporters of repealing the administrative rule, which took effect Dec. 26, said it allows predators to more easily gain access to restrooms and locker rooms, while others – mostly Democrats – blasted those criticisms as unfounded and prejudicial toward transgender people."
