The Biden administration announced a slate of new actions on Thursday to support transgender and LGBTQI+ Americans in the face of what the White House called 'dangerous anti-transgender legislative attacks' in the president's latest battle with Republican-led states.
'The evidence is clear that these types of bills stigmatize and worsen the well-being and mental health of transgender kids, and they put loving and supportive families across the country at risk of discrimination and harassment,' the White House said in a fact sheet.
New measures include an effort by the Homeland Security Department to make airport screenings more gender-neutral and a host of new educational resources on gender-affirming care for kids and teens, after several Republican governors placed limits on accessing such information.
The State Department will also be rolling out an option for people to select 'X' as a gender on their passports beginning on April 11.
To support this, the White House said in a fact sheet, the government is 'working closely with air carriers' in the US to 'promote the use and acceptance' of the 'X' passport option.
United Airlines and American Airlines already allow passengers to pick 'X' as their gender. A third airline will roll it out this fall, the White House said.
The Transportation Security Administration will overhaul 'the current, gender-based system' with 'more accurate technology' to screen travelers later this year to improve 'customer experience of transgender travelers who have previously been required to undergo additional screening due to alarms in sensitive areas.'
The TSA is also updating its guidelines to remove 'gender considerations' during airport security checkpoints.

Until a terrorist has dynamite in their trousers.
Overreaching is going to cause the Democrats to lose even more.
And when these idiots with “X” on their passports get stuck in a country with sanity, or the Middle East and they are held indefinitely?
With all the BS and all the troubles going on in our country because of the idiocy of this administration, now they have to create more that only aims at 0.58% of the population...
We definitely need to get rid of these clowns as soon as possible....
If we still have enough sane people in the country yes the Dems are putting themselves in a very bad position by trotting this stuff out in an election year.
Normalcy being deviated down to normalize the abnormal.
Policies favoring a tiny tiny perctage of the population with rules promoting that favoritism against the vast majority of the population.
And the led-by-their-noses-by-the-Left Dims fail to see the common folks resentment growing.
When will I wake up from this nightmare?
See my tagline...
Follow the science!!!
So this is the alpha omega of the democrat party now? Please keep it up. Let’s see how pandering to 1% of the population with mental illness and a tendency to pedophelia works out.
That’s what i wonder too.
What if other countries don’t recognize a US Passport without a proper sex designation?
We apparently are hell bent on doing this to appease these LGBT activists. But, other countries may not allow US citizens in their country with an X for sex.
Yes, You’re right...Maybe the midterms will help...
Stop trying to appease perverts !
They are sick...Mentally ill.
I sure am clutching at that like a man for a life ring in a heavy sea, going down for the third time.
If a criminal can’t be identified, , like say by gender
_ or *masked*
can they be prosecuted ?
I think I see a pattern.
