Apparently trans people trying to renew their passports are being denied because of this, no matter the gender they request. Just denied a passport full stop.
Never mind the people who are supposed to get ‘deported’ but only hold American citizenship – you can’t deport a person to a country they don’t have a citizenship for. They will be put in ‘detention centres’ indefinitely.
If you don’t think there won’t be concentration camps inside the US you haven’t been paying attention.
Not just denied, but they’re having their documents (birth certificate, drivers license, previous passports) confiscated. Like if a trans person goes to get a new passport, they just keep ALL your documents and give you nothing back. Which is really concerning because that means a targeted population is being prevented from leaving the country
“On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order against “gender ideology extremism,” declaring that the federal government would only recognize two sexes—male and female—and that “these sexes are not changeable.” Days later, new Secretary of State Marco Rubio ordered the freezing of changes to gender identity on passports, as well the suspension of any application of someone seeking an X gender marker, a nonbinary option that was first offered to Americans in 2022”
