U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz is continuing his war on the transgender community. This time, Texas’ junior GOP senator has introduced legislation that would force federal employees to be referred to by their legal names and birth pronouns. Ironic, considering Cruz’s first name is Rafael and “Ted” doesn’t appear on his birth certificate. Under the Safeguarding Honest Speech Act, which Cruz introduced Nov. 15, federal agencies and government contractors with policies that require employees to use someone’s preferred pronouns or a name other than their legal name would be barred from receiving federal funding.
