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.

    Post op is still trans. These people don’t care.

    The bill doesn’t say “use the correct restroom”. It says “people we don’t like can’t use any restroom”

      That’s how the title is worded, but it’s the usual BS “you must use the one that matches your biological sex” thing.
