New California law allows imprisonment If you use Sex Wrong pronoun on Transvestite

Via Fox News:
California healthcare workers who "willfully and repeatedly" refused to use
a transgender high patient s "preferred name and pronouns" could face
penalties ranging from a fine to a prison sentence under a law signed
recently.
California Governor Jerry Brown signed into law last week.

The sponsor, Democratic Senator Scott Wiener State has categorically assert
that no one will be prosecuted for having used the wrong pronoun.
"It's just more scare tactics by people who oppose all civil rights and
LGBT protection," he said in a statement last month.
But apparently the language allows the ability, but remotely.
The bill aims to protect transgender and other LGBT people in hospitals,
retirement homes and assisted living facilities. The bill would ensure
these facilities can accommodate transgender people and their needs,
including deciding which leave room clean bathrooms to gender they prefer.
 It is illegal for a long term care facility or facility staff to take an
action in whole or in part on the basis of actual or perceived sexual
orientation of a person's identity gender, gender expression, or HIV status
(HIV), the bill reads.
Among the illegal actions are "willfully and repeatedly" does not use
a "preferred name and pronouns" of transgender person after he or she
is "clearly informed of the preferred name or pronouns. "

The law states that if provisions are violated, the offender may be
punished by a fine "not exceeding one thousand dollars" or "imprisonment in
the county jail for a period not exceeding one year", or both.
Wiener office noted that violations of care under establishments rarely
given existing law to criminal charges, particularly for minor offenses.
Criminal sanctions are intended more violations that put a patient at risk
of death or serious harm, his office said.
Wiener office noted that the law "does not create new criminal provisions,"
but create "new rights within an existing structure. "
An opponent of the law, the Board of the California family Greg Burt,
slammed since the bill was in its infancy.
