driver's license

A lawsuit seeks to strike down the provision of the law that invalidated those licenses

The voluntary license designation, along with training for police officers, is aimed at making law enforcement interactions safer for people with autism, hearing loss or other disabilities.

The sweeping rule changes, all enacted outside the typical legislative process, have upended life for noncitizens, including those who are here legally.

Trans Kansans are living in fear and confusion under a new state law. Some want to leave the state.

The Republican-controlled Legislature used tactics to avoid public input and overrode the governor’s veto to pass Senate Bill 244, requiring people in public buildings to use the bathroom that coincides with their biological sex and also mandating driver’s licenses include a person’s biological sex instead of their gender.

A Douglas County District Court judge ruled that the law may be enforced during an ongoing lawsuit by transgender Kansans and the American Civil Liberties Union.

State lawmakers repealed rules allowing sex marker changes on state driver's licenses. A lawyer working with trans Oklahomans said it's a "significant blow" to their rights.

Two transgender men from Lawrence filed a lawsuit last week to stop the new Kansas law from taking effect. Hundreds of transgender residents were told their IDs are immediately invalid and must be replaced.

Some transgender Kansans received letters urging them to request new IDs that conflict with their gender identity and presentation, because their current ones are "invalid immediately." It’s the result of a new law that also regulates which bathrooms transgender people are allowed to use.

Kansas lawmakers say that requiring driver's licenses to list legal status would reduce noncitizen voting — something that is exceedingly rare. One study says suspected cases happen just 0.0001% of the time.
