Democrat Colorado Governor Signs Bill Adding ‘Gender’ to Death Certificates
Breitbart ^ | 04/18/2025 | Katherine Hamilton

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) on Thursday announced that he signed a measure adding a “gender” field to state death certificates.

“The change will be in place by Jan. 1. Supporters say the law creates a space on forms to recognize an individual’s lived experience and aligns death certificates with other state records,” CPR News reported.

The legislation, called HB 25-1109, created three options for “gender” on death certificates, including male, female, and “nonbinary.” Under the bill, coroners, funeral directors, and anyone else who fills out death certificates will be required to list the “gender identity” of the deceased person, according to the report.

“People in Colorado deserve to be recognized in death as they lived their life,” one of the bill’s sponsors, Democrat state Rep. Kyle Brown, said during debate.

Death certificates will keep a separate category for “sex,” where the actual biological sex of the deceased person will be listed. Both Republicans and Democrats reportedly agree that recording someone’s actual sex is crucial information, “especially for medical researchers,” according to the report.

Let me guess: next up will be a “Don’t Dead Name The Dead” legislation?

And, there will be a section for the political party registration of the deceased. There will be two check boxes. One for Democrat. The other for.. Democrat.

<> So in other words, they all know this gender thing is a crock. But they're gonna do it anyway to appease the head cases.

Most likely they kept the gender at birth block is so there wouldn’t be problems if internment were in another state that doesn’t have this stupid law.

Woe befall the coroner who mis genders someone. And, how many genders are there?

Funeral directors do not fill out death certificates.

What if the person filling out the death certificate didn’t know the deceased and didn’t know their preferred “gender identity”? Can that person be sued by a friend or relative of the dead person?

Do people in Colorado support this kind of garbage, or are their elections rigged?

How can a funeral director possibly know what a deceased person’s “gender identity” is? He could only go by a third person’s word. Science can not determine g.i. He would be very potentially lying on an official government document by making an entry on heresay.
