    This is the third such story. It's becoming clear they're targeting trans activists.https://twitter.com/NatSecGeek/status/1023004226266587136 …

    Last week, the state department destroyed my paperwork, so now I have no passport, can't prove citizenship, and am going to lose benefits like my health insurance. Why? Because I'm trans.

        At this point, if you are trans I recommend the following: - retain a lawyer specializing in immigration matters - obtain multiple certified copies of any/all paperwork that you have to send - send everything by certified mail, require a signature and get a tracking #

        - cc your lawyer on all application materials by sending them a copy of everything in precisely the same manner. Make sure you the shipment to both the state department and your lawyer are on the same receipt.

        - If your name was changed by court order, include a certified copy of this order with a raised stamp. The State Department MUST honor this else they are in contempt of court.

        - the gender marker change is trickier but current guidelines say they must honor a medical professional's medical opinion. Get this, signed and notarized, by a doctor who has you in their care

        Yes, this is gonna run you a few hundred extra dollars. So cis people you better start shelling out since this is something we have to go through that you don't.

        - and finally: consider waiting this out. Gender marker changes on passports only recently became accessible. We've survived before and can survive again. Sending any gender change materials to the fascist federal government is a massive flag saying HI IM TRANS

        So far, all of these stories involve someone engaging with the system for a renewal, change, or similar. It does not appear that the State Department is going through a database and fucking with people. Yet.

        I’m worried about spreading panic over this. It’s dangerous to create a lot of noise around fed. ID doc gender marker policies bc the wrong ppl will take notice, & they could actually change the policies at any time. See NCTE’s statement:pic.twitter.com/YOK1qAMobO

        Why do you think that? Are you trying to imply that it's liberals in charge now and they are only going to torture/abuse/kill conservatives? I don't understand your reply. Try again.

        Maybe it's also a good idea to go to a same-day passport center since you won't ever be far away from your documents. I know they are only in major cities, and that makes it less accessible, but you don't have to put your documents in the mail.
