ID Documents: States Decide on Gender Listing for Driver's Licenses.

This new bill allows states to decide whether to include gender information on driver's licenses and identification cards. If a state chooses to include this information, individuals can select their appropriate designation without needing extra documents, and a neutral or other option will be available in addition to male or female. This provides greater flexibility and adapts identification documents to individual needs.
Key points
States can independently decide whether to include gender information on identification documents (driver's licenses, ID cards).
If gender is required, individuals can choose their designation without additional documentation (e.g., a doctor's note).
A neutral or other option will be available in addition to standard male and female designations.
