REAL ID Reform: States Decide on Gender Listing for Identification.
This bill grants US states the flexibility to decide whether driver's licenses and ID cards compliant with the REAL ID Act must include a gender or sex field. If a state chooses to list gender, citizens can select their designation without needing extra documentation, such as a doctor's note. Furthermore, states must offer an "unspecified" or "other" option alongside "male" and "female."
