Description
Board of Health; certificate of birth; change of sex. Requires the State Registrar to issue a new certificate of birth to show a change of sex upon request of the person and, if a certified copy of a court order changing the person's name is submitted, to include the person's new name. The bill provides that requirements related to obtaining a new certificate of birth to show a change of sex shall include a requirement that the person submit a form furnished by the State Registrar and completed by a health care provider from whom the person has received treatment stating that the person has undergone clinically appropriate treatment for gender transition but shall not include a requirement for evidence or documentation of any medical procedure. This bill is identical to SB 657. Read the Bill »

Comments
No matter how one feels about gender dysphoria, this bill does not make sense. It specifically says that the request for a new birth certificate for a gender change "...shall not include any requirement for evidence or documentation of any medical procedure." Why not? Do you mean that anybody can get a new birth certificate...even if they havent actually changed from one gender to another?
