SB 406 - Biological Sex on Birth Certificates

SB 406 ensures that Texas birth certificates reflect an individual’s immutable biological sex, closing legal loopholes that could undermine protections for women and children. By anchoring documentation in objective biological criteria, the bill upholds the integrity of gender-based policies and prevents misuse of government records. It also promotes administrative efficiency and integrity in state record keeping by limiting unnecessary or ideologically motivated amendments, as well as promotes common sense truths about human nature. For these reasons, TFR supports SB 406.
