    Rafael also has preferred pronouns. If we aren’t allowed to use people’s preferred pronouns, do we start referring to Rafael as Rafael instead of he/him?

    I can’t wait for some dipshit to reply to this thinking I actually believe this bill prevents you from using pronouns

      “Rafael” is also a preferred name. So we better just start referring to the piece of shit descriptively.

      Yeah the entire Senate should just start to only ever refer to him as Rafael.

      But intentionally mispronounce it “ruh-FAIL”.

      And when he inevitably gets bent out of shape over it, tell him to sit down and let the grown ups talk.
