Earlier this year, Kansas passed a bill that mass-invalidated transgender people's driver's licenses and created a bathroom bounty hunter system across the state. Missouri then advanced three anti-transgender bathroom bills in a single night. Now, Idaho has gone even further than these extreme bills in other states, with its House passing a bill that would ban transgender people from public bathrooms, including private business bathrooms, with a second-offense felony carrying up to a five-year prison sentence. The bill now will move to the Senate, which will could take up the measure in the coming weeks.>The bill, HB 752, states that "any person who knowingly and willfully enters a restroom or changing room in a government-owned building or a place of public accommodation"—a category that includes private businesses—"designated for use by the opposite biological sex of such person shall be guilty of a misdemeanor" punishable by up to one year in prison. A second offense within five years would be a felony carrying up to five years in prison. The bill would amend Chapter 41 of Title 18 of the Idaho Code, the state's indecency and obscenity statutes, adding a new Section 18-4117—classifying a transgender person's use of a public restroom alongside offenses like voyeurism and indecent exposure.
Seems a bit excessive.
