North Dakota's Republican Gov. Doug Burgum has signed a bill that limits access to bathrooms, locker rooms and showers for transgender and gender-nonconforming people in several state facilities. That includes dorms and living facilities controlled by the state board of higher education, as well as correctional facilities for youths and adults. Restrooms and shower rooms at these facilities would be designated for use exclusively for males or exclusively for females. Transgender or gender-nonconforming people would need to get approval from a staff member at the facility to use the restroom or shower room of their choice. Burgum's office announced Wednesday that the bill was signed the previous day.
