Kansas makes Trans People’s Driver’s Licenses Invalid Overnight. 🤯

Transgender individuals in Kansas are now required to surrender their driver's licenses if they do not reflect their sex assigned at birth, as mandated by a new law that took effect on February 26, 2026. This law invalidates previously issued licenses and imposes penalties for noncompliance, including fines and potential jail time.

The fact that the bill says there's no grace period, so this takes effect immediately, is such nasty bit of bonus cruelty. It's the ultimate proof that this was truly meant only to harm and punish people, and not for any of the (still awful) other reasons they tried to pretend.

It says people must come to an office to surrender their now-invalid driver's license, and apply for a "corrected" one. Since that driver's license was instantly invalidated, it would be illegal for those people to even drive themselves to the office to do that.
