Kansas Trans IDs Invalidated Overnight, Sparking Identity Chaos

A Kansas anti-trans law (SB 244) went into effect immediately after lawmakers overrode the governor’s veto, retroactively invalidating driver’s licenses and birth certificates that don’t match birth sex. About 1,500 transgender Kansans could lose licenses and 1,800 birth certificates may be affected, prompting confusion, fear, and scrutiny as affected individuals scramble to understand next steps; the ACLU and LGBTQ advocates are challenging the policy in court, and opponents warn it could affect travel, employment, and voting ahead of midterms.

Trans Kansans brace for rapid ID and restroom rules under new law

A fast-tracked Kansas law requires about 1,800 transgender residents to surrender and replace their driver’s licenses and birth certificates, and mandates restroom use in government buildings be aligned with birth sex. The law took effect within days of a veto override, prompting fear, confusion, and mobilization among trans Kansans and LGBTQ activists. Some are updating IDs or facing potential legal challenges, while organizers push for lawsuits, legislation, and mutual-aid support; others worry about vulnerable youth and even consider leaving the state if conditions don’t improve.

Kansas requires birth-sex on IDs, prompting license changes for transgender residents

Kansas passed SB 244 using a gut-and-go process, forcing driver’s licenses to reflect the holder’s sex assigned at birth and notifying transgender Kansans that their licenses will be invalid without updating. The law also bans transgender people from bathrooms matching their gender identity and creates a civil-suit provision; no grace period is provided. Governor veto overridden by the Republican majority. Advocates anticipate litigation and say the measure heightens risk for transgender residents amid broader national backlashes.

Apple Wallet IDs Expand: iPhone Driver's Licenses Coming to Seven More States

Apple says seven more U.S. states will offer iPhone Wallet IDs for driver’s licenses, joining 13 states and Puerto Rico that already support the feature. Setup is in Wallet under Add → Driver’s License/ID, with current supported states listed (Arizona, Maryland, Colorado, Georgia, Ohio, Hawaii, California, Iowa, New Mexico, Montana, North Dakota, West Virginia, Illinois) plus Puerto Rico; seven future states—Connecticut, Kentucky, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Utah, Arkansas, Virginia—have signed on but without timelines. Wallet IDs are accepted at TSA checkpoints in over 250 airports, though they aren’t used by law enforcement and a physical ID remains advisable. A Digital Passport option allows presenting a digital passport-based ID at participating TSA checkpoints for domestic travel only, not international travel. The feature requires iOS 26.1 / watchOS 26.1 or later.
