An act to amend Section 103426 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to vital records.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 888, as introduced, Wiener. Birth certificates.

Existing law requires the State Registrar to issue a new birth certificate reflecting a change of gender to female, male, or nonbinary without a court order for any person born in this state who submits directly to the State Registrar an application to change the gender on the birth certificate and an affidavit attesting under penalty of perjury that the request for a change of gender is to conform the person’s legal gender to the person’s gender identity and is not made for any fraudulent purpose.

This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to this provision.
