Transgender plaintiffs represented by the ACLU of Montana have said a birth certificate that doesn't match their gender identity puts them at risk of embarrassment, discrimination, harassment or violence if they are asked to provide their birth certificate. Under the new rule, the state Department of Public Health and Human Services said it would no longer record the category of"gender" on people's birth certificates, replacing that category with a listing for"sex" — either male or female — that can be changed only in rare circumstances.
State health officials said weeks later that the court decision put them in"an ambiguous and uncertain situation" and it adopted the rule changes to clarify when a sex designation could be changed on a birth certificate.
