Kentucky students using sex-segregated bathrooms and locker rooms could win $2,500 if they catch a member of the excluded biological sex there, under proposed legislation

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/kentucky-bill-catch-tran...

The bill’s sponsor, Republican state Sen. C.B. Embry, tells U.S. News the measure may need modification. He says he wouldn’t want teens to stage incidents to win payouts.

Embry says he wrote the bill at the request of the Family Foundation of Kentucky, in response to a Louisville, Ky., high school's decision to allow a transgender student to use female facilities. That decision was upheld by an oversight board.

Embarrassing to be in the same country (world) as people like C B Embry. :-(
