  • Juvenile Justice Package (HB 1425 by Rep. Yarkosky)

  • Bill will be considered for questions and amendments

  • The House and Senate sponsors and Dept. of Juvenile Justice Secretary have repeatedly confirmed that this will not impact treatment of transgender and nonbinary youth, but EQFL continues to request an amendment so that references to "gender" not be replaced with reference to a narrow definition of "sex"
