Most of these types of ordinances are written at the city/county/town/village level
so it might be easier to find out about individual localities of interest than to try to
compile an encyclopedia
be well

Also on state levels, check out http://www.hrc.org/map/embed?topic_id=15 (http://www.hrc.org/map/embed?topic_id=15)
NJ is one of the states that has it on a state level for transgender individuals. (There are not that many that are on a state level.)

I am so confused by this thread and the conversations around rest room use, I live on the west coast of USA and have never been questioned about restroom use, since going full time I use only womans rest rooms and do not recall ever being questioned about it. I am unclear how anyone could expect me to use a male rest facility without risk to myself. I do go out a good bit and use the female showers after a swim or work out. seems so strange to think about removing my clothing in a room full of strange men... not to mention very unsafe. whom may have dreamed up such a foolish thought process

That's the thing, Jerri. It's a non-existent problem made up by the religious right to scare people. If you look like a woman, use the women's room. We want the same thing ciswomen want: to pee in relative piece.
