Fucking Rubio.
that unfortunately made it trivial for Trump to do undo. 😔
But the best he could do here was authorize a massive amount of overtime at State to try to get as many passports done as possible. They worked day & night right up until the last minute.
“The policy of the United States is that an individual’s sex is not changeable,” the email read.

The state department began issuing passports with the non-binary third gender identification “X” in April of 2022.
Passports with the “X” identification are still valid, though issues will arise with renewals, the White House told the news site Notus.

It is unclear how many passports currently use the “X” option.

I can't think of a worse word than "truth" I'm just so sick of seeing it.
by thirstily suckling for the pomp of cinematic glory, fascism has released us from the slow death.
any political machine or system that refuses to produce prosperity for those of us with the least must be dismantled until it yields.
Well, Rube... don't want to change the sex, want to change the gender.
Gonna at least be weird.
The copy I have doesn't say amended thankfully, just like a regular birth certificate
(Sorry. Couldn’t resist.)
I hate this keyboard. 🤣
“It should not be too much to ask that our policy-makers make at least a minimal effort to understand the subjects they are making policy about.”

It is *exactly* what the scientifically illiterate executive order says, after all.
