President Joe Biden will publicly get behind Transgender Day of Visibility on Thursday by introducing a new universal gender marking.
AP reports fresh measures aimed at opening federal government to transgender people include a new “X” gender marker on U.S. passport applications beginning on April 11.
New Transportation Security Administration scanners that are gender-neutral are also planned as part of the administration-wide embrace of transgenderism and LGBTQI+ issues and people.
To that end the White House is also working to expand the availability of the “X” gender marker to airlines and federal travel programs, AP outlines, and will make it easier for anyone to change their gender information in Social Security Administration records.
It is a continuation of Biden’s efforts to rewrite the way government engages “gender identity.”
