Why stop at sex at birth. Add height at birth, weight at birth, baby photo etc.

This makes me feel bad for Trans people even more.

How long until they do this with passports?

They've tried doing this at the national level, so it's in the works.

Haven't they already? I saw a video of Hunter Schaffer saying she'd been issued an M passport in the first few days of Trump's 2nd term

I would get upset, but you gotta consider those 8 chapters in the bible about transitioning is wrong and makes god angry /s

Everyone involved in this is guilty of treason

Just appeal and force them to prove you're guilty of having the wrong gender on your id. It will be extremely difficult for them to do especially given the number of appeals that could happen almost at once.

Nice thought, but the law says "sex at birth", they probably know it from social security records or whatever. And your "incorrect" license isn't valid while waiting for appeals... and it's not like they'd prioritize it anyways. Messed up situation.

But for the duration of the appeal you won't have a valid drivers license, as it says in the letter, credentials are invalidated immediately. This is the pressure game. You can appeal and walk everywhere with no valid ID, or you can drive and risk getting pulled over and arrested for having an invalid ID and put into the wrong gender prison.

This'll be used as a tool to disenfranchise trans voters who didn't kneel.

[–] blue_envelope_447@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago

What a shame. The trans people of Kansas deserve far better than this disgusting violation.
