Utah auditor's office says it has received nearly 4,000 complaints in less than 72 hours after launching a reporting form to help enforce a new transgender bathroom ban.
The new law took full effect on May 1 after being passed through the Legislature and signed by Gov. Spencer Cox in January .
The auditor’s office created an online reporting tool to comply with the law.
In addition to government entities potentially facing fines if they violate the law, trans people in Utah can face criminal penalties if they use spaces that align with their gender identity. An investigation by The Tribune found multiple instances of elected officials sharing misinformation about trans people to support the passage of HB257 . Those included claims that tens of thousands of parents complained to the Utah State Board of Education about privacy issues, that hate crimes against LGBTQ+ people had gone down and false portrayals of criminal cases.
