Montana officials say they won’t obey a judge’s order to lift a ban on gender changes on birth certificates.State Judge Michael Moses Thursday issued an injunction blocking enforcement of a rule adopted last week by the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services to ban any gender marker change on a birth certificate except to correct an error. The injunction would be in place while a court case proceeds against a 2021 law that made it harder to change the gender marker.In April, the judge had ordered the state to cease enforcing the law while the case was heard and to revert to an earlier, easier process.
