## Resource

Idaho’s new bathroom ban is now law—but cops are stuck on how to enforce it without invading privacy or violating rights. With no easy way to verify gender on the spot, officers face tough calls: ask for ID? Check physical traits? Demand DNA tests? The ACLU warns this law is uniquely harsh, covering private businesses and stacking penalties. A federal judge partially blocked it, letting trans people use gender-aligned restrooms when single-user options aren’t available—but that’s just a stopgap. Officials say DNA testing isn’t for enforcement, but the law’s loopholes, like “dire need,” could let bad actors skate. Enforcement is messy, impractical, and deeply fraught.
