It would create chaos to allow individuals to change their gender on their legal documents, for any reason, for an unlimited amount of time, with virtually no access to the original document.
2) HB 375 allows parents to change their gender designation on their child’s birth certificate. This could deprive children the right to know the full truth about their parents.
HB 375 undercuts transparency by allowing individuals to keep their biological gender as classified information.
Policy should be rooted in objective reality, not subjective feeling. HB 375 is extremely problematic; please vote NO!
More about HB 375
HB 375 allows Delaware adults to change their sex designation on their birth certificates, marriage record, and drivers license, without requiring a court order or supporting documentation in many circumstances.

Why It Matters
HB 375 moves Delaware further away from truth-based government records and toward ideology-driven identity policies.
Public records should reflect objective reality — not subjective self-identification that can change over time.
Delaware needs to protect truth, transparency, public accountability, and the objective accuracy of state identification documents — especially when children and legal records are involved.
Policy should be grounded in reality, not the changing whims of fickle feelings. Rejecting common sense creates chaos, and HB 375 is a prime example of this.
HB 375 was released from the House Health and Human Development Committee on May 6th and sent to the House Appropriations Committee.
