A California school board president spoke to Fox News Digital after state Attorney General Rob Bonta launched a civil rights investigation into the school district’s policy requiring staff to inform parents if their kids change their gender identity. The Chino Valley Unified School District in July adopted a policy that forces schools to inform parents about changes to their children's gender identity. CVUSD board president Sonja Shaw told Fox News Digital that Bonta’s civil rights investigation against the district is a "ploy" to "blackmail" them and other districts. California will not stand for violations of our students’ civil rights," the press release stated. Bonta’s announcement came after he sent a letter on July 10th to CVUSD, threatening to "take action as appropriate to vigorously protect students’ civil rights."
