Bill filed to invalidate Transgender Texans Driver's Licenses

Bill filed to invalidate Transgender Texans Driver's Licenses'

Bob Hall(R) wasted no time pre-filing a bill to allow DPS to invalidate all transgender licenses.

SB 84 defines "Female" as an individual whose biological reproductive system is developed to produce ova," meaning eggs.

This bill, an amendment to a bill Hall filed in 2023 that 'didn't go far enough' would require all transgender women regardless if they have undergone gender confirmation surgery to be identified as male on 'CERTAIN GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS'.

This of course pertains to Texas driver's licenses and state IDs issued to transgender people. If passed it could go into effect September 1, 2025. 

Conversly, SB 84 would also require transgender men to be identified as female on state ID's and driver licenses.

As you know, the DPS changed a major department policy on August 20, 2024, without allowing a public comment period as required.

Nearly a month later Texas DPS Director Steven McCraw sent a letter to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton asking if the DPS has the authority to ignore court orders and revert driver licenses to the sex they were before they were changed. 

This is Bob Hall's final solution.

My advice to those still living here is to get to a safer state before they pass this law. A lot of people have questioned my advice since the election. I would offer that those who remain will live in a repressive fascist state unlike any seen in recent history."
