Gender Recognition Act passes NY state Legislature


https://www.newsday.com/news/nation/new-york-state-legislature-mta-1.50275392

ALBANY – The state Legislature has approved a bill to allow nonbinary, intersex or undesignated gender New Yorkers to use an "X" for their sex on driver’s licenses rather than identifying themselves as male or female.

The Gender Recognition Act and another bill raising the minimum age that children can be tried for crimes as juvenile offenders were among bills passed in a last-minute rush Thursday night, as the legislative session closed.
