BOSTON (AP) — A federal decide on Friday blocked the Trump administration from enacting a coverage that bans the usage of “X” marker utilized by many nonbinary folks on passports in addition to the altering of gender markers.

In an government order signed in January, the president used a slender definition of the sexes as a substitute of a broader conception of gender. The order says an individual is male or feminine and it rejects the concept somebody can transition from the intercourse assigned at start to a different gender. The framing is in keeping with many conservatives’ views however at odds with main medical teams and insurance policies below former President Joe Biden.

U.S. District Choose Julia Kobick, who was appointed by President Joe Biden, sided with the American Civil Liberties Union’s movement for a preliminary injunction, which stays the motion whereas the lawsuit performs out.

“The Executive Order and the Passport Policy on their face classify passport applicants on the basis of sex and thus must be reviewed under intermediate judicial scrutiny,” Kobick wrote. “That standard requires the government to demonstrate that its actions are substantially related to an important governmental interest. The government has failed to meet this standard.”

In response to the lawsuit, the Trump administration argued the passport coverage change “does not violate the equal protection guarantees of the Constitution.” In addition they contended that the president has broad discretion in setting passport coverage and that plaintiffs wouldn’t be harmed by the coverage, since they’re nonetheless free to journey overseas.
