California Attorney General Rob Bonta joined the attorneys general of 14 states and the District of Columbia in filing an amicus curiae brief supporting three transgender Alabamans who've been denied driver's licenses that correspond to their gender identity.
Alabama Policy Order 63 — issued in 2012 by the Alabama Department of Public Safety — allows for individuals to have a different gender than their sex assigned at birth on their driver's license or other state issued ID only if they provide proof of gender affirming surgery.
In 2018, the American Civil Liberties Union filed the suit of Corbitt v. Taylor against the state on behalf of three individuals affected by the policy.
