Idaho Gov. Brad Little signed into law this week two bills to directly counter transgender ideology within the state. The first is a pronoun law assuring that government employees and public school teachers use pronouns that accord with a person’s biological sex and the second is a legal definition of sex that acknowledges “(i)n human beings, there are two and only two sexes: male and female.”
On Monday, April 8, Little signed HB 538, which prohibits compulsory so-called “gender language,” protecting government employees and public school teachers in particular from any adverse actions for using pronouns of a person in accord with the person’s biological sex.
The new law states, “The Legislature finds that despite the United States Supreme Court’s clear holding that compelled speech offends the constitution, government actors across the State of Idaho and the United States as a whole are not vigilantly protecting the people against such compelled speech.”
There are increasing pressures by state government actors to compel public employees, as well as students in public schools, to communicate certain preferred personal titles and pronouns that many such employees and students do not prefer to communicate. Specifically, to compel the use of preferred personal titles and pronouns that do not correspond with the biological sex of the individual seeking to be referred to by such preferred personal titles.
