Texas AG Sues Denton Over Pride Event Changing Rooms, Igniting Legal Battle Over State 'Bathroom Ban'

Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued Denton over proposed gender-neutral changing rooms at a private Pride pool party, citing the state's 'bathroom ban' (SB 8). This legal action comes despite event organizers claiming they removed the controversial language and the city asserting compliance, raising questions about the law's application, due process, and the use of state resources. The case highlights tensions between state authority, local governance, and LGBTQ+ community rights.
