The federal government wants to make traveling easier for transgender, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming travelers.
On Thursday, International Transgender Day of Visibility, the Department of Homeland Security announced new measures designed to better serve all U.S. travelers, regardless of their gender identity.
Those measures are part of a “whole-of-government effort to promote equity and inclusion in all our programs and processes” and aimed at better protecting all travelers while “ensuring that everyone, regardless of gender identity, is treated with respect,” DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in a statement.
