Trump’s New Transphobic Policy: Revoking Transgender People’s Driver’s Licenses
In the Trump administration’s witch hunt for transgender people, the latest madness is unfolding in Kansas, where authorities have revoked transgender drivers' licenses. The excuse? Their driver’s licenses show a sex that differs from the sex on their birth certificate. Undoubtedly, this is an attack on transgender people who managed to legally recognize their gender on the document, which has now been rendered useless.
The new law provides that driver’s licenses and ID documents issued by Kansas are to reflect the owner’s sex assigned at birth.” Those who drive with a license showing a different sex could face a sentence of up to six months in jail and a fine of $1,000.
This outrage, the latest in the U.S. since Trump took office for the second time, was approved thanks to Republican voters, who are once again deploying a hunt for transgender people.
In light of this situation, complaints from Kansas residents are multiplying. They stand against the United States’ new transphobic policy, a policy they found out about in a letter they received. The letter warned them that they were no longer allowed to drive, and that if they did, they would face the consequences.
’Stop Transgender Madness’
Donald Trump went so far as to promise to “stop the transgender madness” during his campaign. That’s not to mention that he has encouraged persecutions, insults, eliminating aid for reassignment programs, [denying] rights and much more. He’s done whatever it takes to convince everyone in the U.S. that transgender people are the country’s biggest problem, even spending $215 million on TV ads demonizing transgender people.
This includes the case of an ad showing a female athlete who has trained her entire life losing her record to a transgender woman. The ad has aired during all kinds of sports events, leading hundreds of thousands of Americans to believe that transgender athletes should be excluded from competitions.
And Trump did it. He composed the ad surrounded by young female athlete whose future he is going to save since they woud not hage to compete against transgender women. Just another aspect of a campaign to scare parents. It warns them about boys who will be in changing rooms watching their naked daughters and tells them to be afraid.
Trump plants the message and lets it resonate to criminalize a group for being a minority. By claiming that murderers transition in prison, he further associates the transgender community with crime, thus turning them into a problem.
In the U.S., the transgender population is not even 0.5%, but it has become the focus of its policies because transgender people are the culture war’s target.
