AUSTIN (KXAN) — A bill filed in the Texas House of Representatives this week threatens to charge transgender Texans with a crime for identifying with a gender that differs from their sex assigned at birth.
HB 3817 would make it a state jail felony for a person to “identify” to a state agency or private employer their “biological sex as the opposite of the biological sex assigned to the person at birth.”
