Bill overview
The Restroom Access Act of 2023 aims to ensure that people with certain medical conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease or pregnancy, can access employee restrooms at retail establishments when public restrooms aren't available.

It also directs the Department of Labor to create a system for issuing identification cards to individuals with eligible medical conditions. This legislation seeks to provide a basic need for individuals facing urgent restroom requirements.
