The state is certainly able to have a higher standard, of course.

I agree with Vandalsquirrel that there were much better ways to handle this. I'm not as sure as some of you that the autistic teen should be legally entitled to have assistance in the dressing room, but it certainly seems to me that a decent company would permit it.
That's part of the reason that I asked about whether or not autism is noticeable on sight. Someone claiming to need assistance (and the subsequent "bending of the rules") could create a loss for the company.
