Last year, Governor Jerry Brown signed Senate Bill (SB) 179, known as the “Gender Recognition Act,” which adds a “nonbinary” gender option to state driver’s licenses, identification cards, and birth certificates.  Public entities will need to address the nonbinary gender option now available to employees and students on official documents.  This podcast will discuss SB 179, its implications on all public entities, and practical actions needed to prepare for the law’s implementation.
