Caitlyn Jenner turns to Donald Trump for help correcting the gender on her passport
Caitlyn Jenner asks President Donald Trump for help to correct her gender on her passport
Because her passport renewal again listed her gender as male, Caitlyn Jenner asked President Donald Trump for help correcting the administrative error.
Despite having updated all her legal documents years ago to reaffirm her transition, the 76-year-old former Olympian's identity document still lists her gender as male.
For years, her sex is listed as “M”.
During her appearance on Tomi Lahren's podcast, the New Yorker admitted how complicated it is to present one gender and then, when trying to verify it with a document, find that it lists another.
“These days, documentation is extremely important. Every time you turn around, you have to show your ID. As someone in my situation, who has transitioned, I worked very, very hard. I worked with a law firm to make sure everything was changed from 'M' to 'F,' even my birth certificate,” she explained.
However, her problem arose when her passport expired and she had to renew it.
“I did everything, and they gave it back to me, 'M'; marker on her passport exhausted, Caitlyn Jenner is trying to reach Donald Trump, hoping for his intervention to resolve the administrative error.
“I was at Mar-a-Lago two months ago and wrote him a letter explaining all of this, how it's affecting me and so many other people.
Unfortunately, he wasn't there that weekend. A Secret Service agent said I could get it to him, leave it on his desk, and so on.
I haven't heard back from him. I don't blame him at all. I like him a lot and I love what he's doing,” she emphasized.
It should be noted that on her first day back at the White House, Donald Trump signed an executive order declaring that the United States would recognize only two sexes: male and female. From that moment on,the State Department suspended the processing of passport applications from Americans who wished to change their gender marker. It is estimated that this measure ultimately affected more than 475,000 transgender adults lacking identification documents that accurately reflect their gender.
