According to news reports, a New Jersey man was recently arrested for allegedly filming women in fitting rooms at a Target store.
You may recall Target unveiled a policy letting men enter women’s restrooms, changing areas, and similar facilities in its stores nearly a year and a half ago.
In response, many people expressed public safety concerns about this policy, and more than 1.5 million people signed a pledge to boycott Target until the policy changes.
This latest incident underscores the need for Target to reverse course and protect the privacy and safety of its customers and employees in its stores.
It also reminds us that states like Arkansas need to protect the privacy and safety of public school students and others when it comes to showers, locker rooms, restrooms, and similar facilities in public schools and other government buildings.
