I wrote this bill in conjunction with Representative Ted Bessel as part of a pan-regional effort to extend full political equality to transgender Atlasians. Quite plainly, this legislation seeks to establish a legal process whereby transgender individuals may have their correct gender identity listed on their photo ID and other government documents. The details of how this process would work are in the bill; basically, an individual would file a form with the correct government agency just as one would do to change one's legal name; the government then has one month to implement the request. All transgender individuals residing in Fremont have right to make this request, with the exception of persons charged with crimes and those currently serving jail sentences (to prevent dishonest rapists-to-be from taking advantage of these provisions).

Have at it.

I made multiple revisions to my bill, as can be seen in the CoD intro thread (link to come), but I'd ask that we make them all similar.

Due to procedural confusion, debate has been moved to this thread.
