Illinois is facing obstacles in its implementation of the gender 'X' option on residents' identification cards, as state law enforcement claims rolling out the new option is harder than state officials are making it out to be.
Illinois is facing obstacles in its implementation of the gender"X" option on residents' identification cards, as state law enforcement claims rolling out the new option is harder than state officials are making it out to be.
State police spokeswoman Melaney Arnold told the Chicago Tribune that the gender"X" change will affect the LEADS database, an information sharing system that pulls data from driver's licenses and criminal history records from the secretary of state. Court systems will also be affected by this change, and state police will need to make changes to its Criminal History Records Information and its data on criminal court outcomes. Livescan fingerprint machines will also need to be updated to accept the gender"X" option, Arnold said.
