Bill Summary

Relative to gender identity on certain identification issued by the Registry of Motor Vehicles. Transportation.

AI Summary

This bill allows individuals submitting applications for driver's licenses, learner's permits, identification cards, or liquor purchase identification cards to the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles to designate their gender as "X" instead of "male" or "female". The bill prohibits the registry from requiring any documentation for such gender designations. It also directs the Registrar of Motor Vehicles to promulgate regulations to implement this change, including potentially allowing for additional gender designations beyond "X" to reflect applicants' gender identities.
