Workgroup on Supporting Transgender and Gender Diverse Students - Established

HB 1011 establishes a workgroup to study support for transgender and gender diverse students in Maryland public schools. The workgroup includes 12 appointed members representing legislators (rural and urban), education leaders, student and parent advocates, and state officials. It will study ways to support these students and make recommendations on statewide policies by December 1, 2026, after which the workgroup expires. The bill creates a process for gathering input but does not implement new policies itself.
