Good morning,

This email is to provide you with an update regarding your request and to ask for some clarification on how you would like to proceed.

The agency has not completed the rule making process yet, and we are not currently issuing ID cards or licenses with the Gender X designation.

Because of this, we will not have responsive records the the following portions of your request:

2. Marketing materials such as brochures, pamphlets, cards, etc.

3. Any policy directives, guidance documents, memorandum, training materials, or similar records

4. Revenue made off of Gender X driver's licenses and state IDs, and/or the total number of people with Gender X driver's licenses and state IDs

In light of this update, would you like us to proceed with item 1:

Please let us know how you would like us to move forward on this.

Best,

Karen
