Trans Texans could be about to lose their licenses entirely - INTO
Despite how awful this already is for trans Texans, it’s getting worse. A letter from the Texas DPS Director, Steven McCraw, to Paxton details where this could all end up. McCraw expresses concern in the letter that the DPS might have “altered many governmental sex records in mistaken reliance on court orders that either lacked any basis in law or authority.” Beyond from continuing the fallacy of Paxton’s own “concerns,” McCraw wants to know if they can undo the gender marker corrections trans people have made in the past, noting that “when DPS has made an erroneous entry to a person’s records, the agency has on its own initiative corrected such a mistake.”
McCraw, here, is asking to open the door to tearing away valid ID from trans people who might have had their gender marker corrected years before. One such person, is TikToker @MamaMephistopheles, who spoke about her concerns in a recent video.
