The Gay-Straight Alliance Network said two states, Massachusetts and Connecticut, have statewide policies granting the same protections, but California is the first to put them into statute and require them in all school districts. A Sacramento-based conservative organization that opposed the bill said previous state law was sufficient to address the concerns of transgender students and their families. Before Brown signed AB1266, state law already prohibited schools from discriminating against students based on their gender identity. Karen England, executive director of Capitol Resource Institute, criti- cized the Legislature and governor for spreading ''San Francisco values'' throughout the state. ''The answer is not to force something this radical on every single grade in California,'' she said. She said the new law does not require students to prove they have a gender-identity issue, but rather requires school administrators to rely on students' opinions of themselves. England also noted that there is no accurate way to gauge the effect of such policies because no uniform data on student or parent complaints is being collected. ''What about the right to privacy of a junior high school girl wanting to go to the bathroom and having some privacy, or after PE showering and having to worry about being in the locker room with a boy?'' she said. She predicted school districts will face lawsuits from parents of other children who feel their rights have been violated by the new law. Hours after the governor's signing was announced, a conservative legal group based in Sacramento issued a news release soliciting plaintiffs for a future lawsuit against the law, which will take effect Jan. 1. The Pacific Justice Institute says AB1266 has the potential to raise privacy questions and lead to a type of reverse discrimination if it prevents students from making a sports team ''because someone from the opposite gender took their place.''

Lawsuit challenges logging in spotted owl habitat SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Conservation groups are suing two federal agencies over a plan that allows logging in northern spotted owl and salmon habitat on private timberlands in Northern California. The Center for Biological Diversity and others filed the challenge Monday against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the NOAA Fisheries Service in U.S. District Court in San Francisco. The groups are seeking an injunction barring implementation of what is known as a habitat conservation plan covering nearly 240 square miles of timberland owned by Fruit Growers Supply in Siskiyou County. The lawsuit says the plan violates environmental laws by relying too heavily on the assumption that neighboring national forest lands won't be logged, and will result in the deaths of more than 80 spotted owls. The two agencies had no immediate comment. CARE TO COMMENT? At redbluffdailynews.com, scroll to the end of any story, click the link and type away.
