OK Gov signs bill banning ‘nonbinary’ gender on birth certificate


I live in Oklahoma. Thank God we have a Governor that comprehends God created humans male and female and NOT any crazy ungodly notion of multiple genders beyond God’s creation.

So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. – Genesis 1: 27 NKJV

OK Gov signs bill banning ‘nonbinary’ gender on birth certificate

Gov. Kevin Stitt (OK-R)

The Right Scoop

The Oklahoma governor just signed a bill last night into law that bans the nonbinary gender option on the birth certificate in his state.

Via NBC News (the AP):

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt signed a bill Tuesday explicitly prohibiting the use of nonbinary gender markers on state birth certificates, a ban experts say is the first of its kind in the nation.

The bill followed a flap last year over the Oklahoma State Department of Health’s agreement in a civil case allowing a nonbinary option. The birth certificate in that case was issued to an Oklahoma-born Oregon resident who sued after the agency initially refused the request. People who are nonbinary do not identify with traditional male or female gender assignments.

Full stop. To the Associated Press author who wrote the article, people are NOT nonbinary. They may choose to believe that about themselves, but they are either male or female. Stop with the propaganda.

It continues…

News of the settlement prompted outrage among Republicans, including Stitt, who along with fellow conservatives in a number of GOP-led states have been engaged in a culture war over issues like restricting LGBTQ and abortion rights that drive the party’s base in an election year. Stitt’s appointee to lead the agency abruptly resigned the next day, and the governor then promptly issued an executive order prohibiting any changes to a person’s gender on birth certificates, despite the settlement agreement. A civil rights group has challenged the executive order in federal court, but the state has not yet responded.

Whoa whoa whoa! Now the AP is claiming that Republicans have been engaged in a ‘culture war’ against LGBT whatever rights around the country for election purposes. That’s like saying Ukrainians are attacking Russians for traveling to Ukraine. It’s completely wrong and backwards.

Just like Russia invaded Ukraine, the LGBTers have invaded our institutions and culture, inventing absurd rights that never existed so they can normalize their mental illness and sexual proclivities.

GOP-led states are simply defending the culture which has been apart of this country since its founding, a culture grounded in Christianity.

Man, the propaganda is deep in this article.

It continues…

Many states only offer male or female gender options on birth certificates, but Oklahoma is the first to write the nonbinary prohibition into law, according to Lambda Legal, the civil rights group suing Oklahoma.

Currently, 15 states and the District of Columbia specifically allow a gender marker designation outside of male or female, according to the National Center for Transgender Equality. That number will increase on July 1 when Vermont’s new statute goes into effect.

“People are free to believe whatever they want about their identity, but science has determined people are either biologically male or female at birth,” said Oklahoma Rep. Sheila Dills, the House sponsor of the bill, in a statement after the bill passed the House last week. “We want clarity and truth on official state documents. Information should be based on established medical fact and not an ever-changing social dialogue.”

Dills is exactly right and I’m glad the governor signed this bill into law. I’m sure the crazies will challenge it, but I believe ultimately Oklahoma will prevail.

Way to lead the way Governor Stitt. [Blog Editor bold emphasis]

Oklahoma Gov. Stitt signs anti-abortion, ‘Second Amendment Sanctuary,’ ‘Religious Freedom’ bills


I found this on Social Media (of course one not associated with Big Tech) and can’t remember who shared. Sorry about that if that person views this post.

AND SO … I am pleased to reside in the State of Oklahoma where the State Congress and Governor appear to be on board to resist the tyranny of the Beijing-Biden Dem-Marxist fraudulently elected regime. CHECK OUT THE RESISTANCE (so far).

Oklahoma Gov. Stitt signs anti-abortion, ‘Second Amendment Sanctuary,’ ‘Religious Freedom’ bills

By CARMEN FORMAN – THE OKLAHOMAN

Gov. Kevin Stitt has signed bills to limit abortions in Oklahoma, make the state a “Second Amendment Sanctuary” and prevent the government from closing places of worship during emergency situations.

The bills were hotly debated in Oklahoma’s Republican-led Legislature, but had widespread support among GOP legislators.

Here’s a look at some of the legislation the governor signed Monday.

Stitt signed three bills that seek to limit the number of abortions performed in Oklahoma.

One or more of the laws is likely to result in a court challenge because critics have said the measures interfere with a woman’s constitutional right to seek an abortion.

Gloria Pedro, Planned Parenthood Great Plains Votes regional manager, said the laws are designed to punish abortion providers, shame women and block access to safe and legal abortions.

“Politicians should not insert themselves into a person’s private medical decisions about pregnancy or between doctors and their patients,” Pedro said.

Stitt signed House Bill 2441, which would prohibit an abortion if a fetal heartbeat can be detected. In some cases, a fetal heartbeat can be detected as early as six weeks into a pregnancy — before many women know they are pregnant.

Under the bill, any doctor who performs an abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected could be charged with homicide.

Stitt also signed House Bill 1102 to revoke the medical license of doctors who perform abortions that are not medically necessary to prevent “irreversible physical impairment” or death of the mother.

The governor also signed House Bill 1904 to require that abortions be performed only by physicians who are board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology, which critics said will severely limit the number of qualified medical professionals who can perform abortions.

When Stitt was campaigning for governor, he vowed to sign every piece of anti-abortion legislation to come across his desk. On Monday, Stitt said he was upholding that promise.

“When I ran for office, I told Oklahomans that I would every piece of pro-life legislation that hit my desk, and I stay true to that promise,” he said.

As for the threat of legal challenges, “we’ll let the courts work out if any of those get overturned,” he said.

In 2019, 4,424 abortions were performed in Oklahoma, according to the most recent data from the State Department of Health.

Julie Burkhart, founder and CEO of Trust Women, chastised the governor for signing the “radical and unconstitutional measures.” Trust Women operates an abortion clinic in Oklahoma City.

“He is wasting taxpayer money and violating Oklahomans’ privacy,” she said in a statement. “The people of Oklahoma would be better served by government officials improving health care access for Oklahomans.”

These laws will take effect Nov. 1.

Oklahoma has become a “Second Amendment Sanctuary State” under a new law that took effect upon Stitt’s signature.

Senate Bill 631 by Sen. Warren Hamilton, R-McCurtain, and Rep. Sean Roberts, R-Hominy, seeks to preempt federal firearm laws.

“Any federal, state, county or municipal act, law, executive order, administrative order, court order, rule, policy or regulation ordering the buy-back, confiscation or surrender of firearms, firearm accessories or ammunition from law-abiding citizens of this state shall be considered an infringement on the rights of citizens to keep and bear arms,” the law reads.

“This measure builds a wall of protection around our Constitutionally-protected, God-given, blood-bought rights to keep and bear arms,” Hamilton said in a statement.

Stitt also signed the “Oklahoma Religious Freedom Act” that aims to prevent the closure of houses of worship during emergencies.

The new law comes after some places of worship in Oklahoma and other states were forced to close or operate under certain limits during the COVID-19 pandemic.

House Bill 2648 bars government entities from closing places of worship, saying that “shall be considered a substantial burden” even if the emergency order applies generally.

However, the law wouldn’t stop government officials from imposing other restrictions on churches, such as capacity limits, mask mandates or social distancing requirements.

“This country was founded by individuals seeking freedom to worship in the manner they so choose without persecution,” said House Majority Floor Leader Jon Echols, R-Oklahoma City. “I can think of nothing more patriotic than protecting those rights for future generations.”

During the pandemic, Norman set restrictions on local businesses and places of worship. Norman Mayor Breea Clark came under fire for allowing some businesses to reopen before places of worship, a decision she quickly reversed.

HB 2648 will take effect Nov. 1.
