Basically, identifying as a gender that doesn't correspond to their biological sex was assigned as birth to an employer or governmental entity is punishable by either a jail sentence between 180 days and two years, or a fine of up to $10,000.
Fortunately, it hasn't passed yet, and hasn't even gotten into committee yet.
Text of the Bill here.
Finally, a bit of common sense pushing back against the endless parade of identity politics nonsense. This “Gender Identity Fraud” bill isn’t just some political stunt; it’s a clear message that biology still matters, no matter how much some want to pretend otherwise.
The bill’s penalties aren’t about cruelty; they’re about holding people accountable for misrepresenting something as fundamental as gender. It’s surprising that this even needs stating in this day, but here we are, with progressives insisting that self-declared identity trumps objective reality.
Of course, the usual crowd will scream “bigotry” and “oppression,” throwing around their emotional buzzwords like confetti. But laws exist to protect facts, not feelings, and society can’t function if we just let personal whims rewrite reality.
All told, this bill is a welcome pushback against the chaos identity ideology has caused. I’m curious to see how loudly the outrage machine revs up in response.
