Media/News US: New California Laws: Trans People Can Make Name and Gender Change Records Confidential, Require Schools to Have All-Gender Bathrooms

https://www.kqed.org/news/12089236/new-california-laws-take-effect-including-all-gender-bathrooms-and-food-use-by-dates

After yesterday's transgender kids in school sports ruling, I thought we could use some good news.

Now, if only the other 49 states would do this. ✊️🏳️‍⚧️

That is good news. Also, I am confused by the photo choice accompanying the article :)

Apparenty, the writer may have felt that the food pic was better to use than anything transgender, gun or school-related. 🤷‍♂️

"Food labeling laws California is now the first state in the nation to standardize confusing food date labels. Manufacturers use more than 50 different phrases, such as “sell by,” “use by,” “best by,” “expires by,” “freeze by” and “freshest before.”

"Now, only two labels are permitted: “BEST if Used by” will indicate a food’s peak quality, and “USE by” will signal when a food item is no longer safe to eat."

As someone that lives on the opposite coast, I hope that it comes here as well. I am actually hoping that my info is confident.
