An Act establishing gender-neutral bathrooms

This bill directs state building examiners to create rules allowing for gender-neutral restrooms in public and private buildings across Massachusetts. The new regulations would permit facilities that include multiple stalls separated by privacy walls or partitions, along with shared handwashing areas. These changes apply to all types of construction projects, including new builds, repairs, and renovations, regardless of the building's specific use category. By amending the state building code, the legislation aims to provide a standardized framework for installing inclusive bathroom options in existing and future structures.
