Is that what it’s saying in the bill though?
I could be wrong but it literally looks like he just wants to make it illegal to FUND the act of calling people their preferred pronouns, as in, not allow internal PSA’s to be made telling people they CAN do it.
It doesn’t appear to have any teeth or weight to prevent people from still respecting it if they want to.
It’s attempting to block a problem that doesn’t exist.
It might not have any teeth, but if this passes it sets precedent for bills in the future that do have teeth.
Government does have diversity and inclusion meetings, he might be going after that.
I did not know that, that’s awesome they have that and shitty if it’s part of what he’s after.
Yea, I have talked at some before, I just did the Q/A for trans veterans.
