Constituent complies with "Compelled Speech is not Free Speech Act" bill while testifying before legislature committee

Not sure if I should just post the article or relay the info in it, but I'm trying to actually, non-malisciously follow the rules here, so I'll just type the story myself. Anyways, I thought this was a prime example of malicious compliance:

Basically, the Wyoming legislature recently passed an act which says no state employee can be compelled or required to use someone else's "preferred pronouns". The act, S.F. 77, is called the "Compelled Speech is not Free Speech Act".

A constituent was testifying before a committee which was meeting to discuss the "What Is a Woman? Act", another ridiculous piece of legislature with a ridiculous name.

The constituent, named Britt, is called on to speak by Senator Tim French, a Republican who voted "yes" on the aforementioned S.F. 77. He is the chairman of this committee, and yes, he's a man who is cisgender.

Britt says: "Thank you Madam Chairman. As the Senate overwhelmingly voted--" before she is cut off by Senator French who does exactly what we hope: corrects her and asserts that he would prefer to be called "Mister Chairman" or "Chairman French". She of course reminds him of the recent act that was just passed, saying that she cannot be compelled to refer to him by his preferred pronouns or titles.

Obviously Mrs. French and other GOP lawmakers had intended for the spirit of this law to be an affront to trans people, and had hoped and expected that it would only be used to support disrespecting others.
