A federal judge says Kansas officials are no longer required to change transgender people’s birth certificates so the documents reflect their gender identities
“The trans activists in this case attempted to nullify state law,” Kobach said. “The court held that SB 180 means what it says — birth certificates in Kansas must reflect biological sex. As long as I am attorney general, the laws of Kansas will be enforced as written. The Legislature decided that birth certificates must reflect biological reality, and they were quite clear in how they wrote the law."argued refusing to change birth certificates would violate rights protected by the U.S.
The new Kansas law was part of a wave of measures rolling back trans rights emerging from Republican-controlled statehouses across the U.S. this year. The law also declares the state's interests in protecting people's privacy, health and safety justifies separate facilities, such as bathrooms and locker rooms, for men and women.
“To hold otherwise would be to render state governments vassals of the federal courts, forever beholden to unchangeable consent agreements entered into by long-gone public officials,” Kobach said. In 2018, Kelly defeated Kobach, then the Kansas secretary of state, to win her first term as governor. Kobach
