On January 1, a new law took effect in California. This law requires the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to house, search, and refer to inmates according to their preferred gender identity. There is no need for surgery. There is no need for hormone therapy. There is no need for any kind of medical examination. The policy is not optional. Whatever could go wrong?
Last fall groundbreaking legislation gave transgender, intersex, and nonbinary inmates the right, regardless of anatomy, to choose whether to be housed in a male or female prison. https://t.co/bfHxh2bvJr
