The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles will no longer allow customers to change their gender markers on their driver’s licenses or state-issued IDs starting this Thursday.
Indiana residents were previously allowed to change their gender by using a court-ordered gender change or a physician’s statement.
IYG, an Indianapolis-based LGBTQ+ center, issued a statement criticizing the BMV’s rule change as discriminatory and dangerous, also saying the timing only gives those impacted days to act.
The rule change comes nearly a year after Indiana Governor Mike Braun signed an executive order that favors gender assigned at birth.
