ID Gender Reform: States Decide on Gender Listing for Licenses
This new law allows states to decide whether to require gender information on driver's licenses and ID cards. If a state chooses to include this field, individuals can self-identify their gender without extra paperwork, and an "unspecified" or "other" option will be available alongside male and female. This simplifies the ID process for many citizens.
Key points

If gender is required, individuals can indicate their gender without needing additional documentation (e.g., a doctor's note).
An "unspecified" or "other" gender option will be available in addition to male and female.
