The legislation takes aim directly at trans individuals using the restroom or locker rooms, threatening those who “knowingly” and “willfully” enter facilities designated for the “opposite biological sex” with prison time. A first offense would count as a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail. Those caught using the bathroom in repeated offenses, however, could be convicted as felons and face up to five years in prison.
It’ll be interesting to see how this aligns with the Full Faith and Credit clause for someone who updates their birth certificate from another state that allows for that then uses the bathroom that aligns with said certificate.
I cant wait for all the CIS conservatives who inevitably get arrested/genital inspected due to this law, and the inevitable crying of “It wasnt supposed to affect me, I feel so humiliated and attacked over this egregious invasion of my body” with zero self awareness or irony.
I’m scared of laws like this because I’m a cis woman and I have natural facial hair
Laws like this always put non-conservative-traditional women in the crosshairs. Moreso than trans people, despite specifically attacking trans people, simply due to how many more CIS people there are than trans.
