The American Medical Association Board of Trustees (BOT) is pushing to remove the gender tab from all future birth certificates.

Moving forward, the AMA wants there to be no designation of gender to prevent discrimination and for the person to later identify themselves

The June 2021 BOT recommendation 15 reads,

“Vital statistics data is a fundamental source of health information. In the U.S., the Standard Certificates of Live Birth form is the primary means by which uniformity of data collection and processing is achieved. Birth certificates, on the other hand, are issued by the government to individuals as proof of birth. Sex designation, as collected through the standard form and included on the birth certificate, refers to the biological difference between males and females. Today, the majority of states (48) and the District of Columbia allow people to amend their sex designation on their birth certificate to reflect their individual gender identities, but only 10 states allow for a gender-neutral designation, typically “X,” on the birth certificate.”

“Existing AMA policy recognizes that every individual has the right to determine their gender identity and sex designation on government documents. To protect individual privacy and to prevent discrimination, U.S. jurisdictions should remove sex designation on the birth certificate.”

The goal is to unify everyone and prevent discrimination and forced gender.
