Well it was just a matter of time before the hate reached this level of blithering pig-ignorance.
MAGA Hats here, Sloat, olde dude... Please tell me who would be "protected" by this? Who is harmed if this doesn't become law? Why is this law needed? What possible difference could it make to the government at all? Because it was never a problem in any way whatsoever before now in any state in the Union.
Texas Republican proposes jail time for identifying as transgender
“Gender identity fraud” could bring up to two years in jail under a bill by Rep. Tom Oliverson.
AUSTIN — A Texas Republican has filed a bill that would criminalize transgender people who mislead the government or an employer by stating their gender identity as their biological sex.
House Bill 3817 would create a criminal penalty for “gender identity fraud,” making it a state jail felony to make a false or misleading statement misidentifying one’s biological sex to a governmental entity or an employer.
A state jail felony can be punished with six months to two years in jail and a fine of up to $10,000.
Rep. Tom Oliverson, R-Cypress — a former candidate for House speaker — filed the bill last week. It is among dozens of proposals in the Legislature that would affect the state’s estimated transgender population of 120,000 people. Friday is the deadline for most bills to be filed this session.
