SACRAMENTO — A Southern California school district involved in an ongoing legal battle with the state over the district’s gender-identity policy sued Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom Tuesday over a new law banning districts from requiring that parents be notified of their child’s gender identification change.

The Chino Valley Unified School District and a handful of parents argued the law violates the rights of parents protected under the U.S. Constitution.
