Kansas Overrides Laura Kelly's Veto to Invalidate Transgender IDs

The Kansas Legislature has overridden a veto by Governor Laura Kelly to enact a law that invalidates approximately 1,700 driver’s licenses and 1,800 birth certificates belonging to transgender residents.This new policy, which prohibits government documents from reflecting any sex other than the one assigned at birth, follows similar efforts across the USA supported by the rhetoric of Donald Trump.Senate Majority Leader Chase Blasi defended the measure as a return to common sense, while activists like Anthony Alvarez warned it would lead to increased harassment.
