Committee passes Florida bill to require biological sex on licenses, activists warn of 'genocide'

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – A bill requiring a person identifies on their drivers license by their biological sex rather than their gender passed its first committee assignment on Monday.

The legislation also requires Health care insurers provide a de-transition treatment option for people who have participated in sex-reassignment surgery.

Rep. Douglas Bankson, R-Apopka, is the bill’s sponsor.

Bankson’s legislation was met with public comments by progressive activists who claim the bill was advocating for a “trans genocide.”
