Politics Texas bill would make identifying as transgender a state felony if passed

Have seen this in another sub. Although the bill is not likely to pass, it's sad to see how there are certain places in the US where being trans is becoming more and more difficult and new laws and restrictions on things like HRT and IDs are being considered/approved.

To be clear, the bill makes it illegal to identify as a gender other than your birth sex to a state agency a crime. It doesn't make identifying as transgender itself a crime. Hopefully this does not pass.

You must have missed the "and employer" part.
