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

Where did you get this information? Can you link a source? I need verification because if true, vocal outrage is needed right the fucking now

Can you link a source?

Of course not. He completely made it, and reddit will buy it hook, link, and sinker.

Cool link.

Can you point out the line showing his birth certificate, drivers license, and previous passports were confiscated?

I did, which is why I asked.

No mention of a driver license.

No mention of confiscation. Delayed passport processing is not confiscation.

(Also you know you can re-order birth certificates right?)
