Kansas is invalidating and seizing driver's licenses from trans people.
They're also revoking birth certificates.
MAGA fascists are at the "seizing documents" stage in Kansas.
From people I know who track this, we've already seen 400,000 inter-state refugees. The number is going to go up.

Under new statute, Kansas revokes drivers licenses of transgender people, effective today. No grace period to revise or obtain new license.
Puts thousands of people at risk of criminal penalties for driving without a license. Revokes the principal govt-issued ID, now required in Trump's America. Makes it harder and more expensive to vote, harder to open a bank account or find a job, and harder to get the fuck out of Kansas.

@eniko I naively thought the only requirement was that you had to be Sean Barrett. Are there other contributors?

@LaVi e non avresti tutti i torti, ma quando la vena non é così chiusa provo a dirmi che se ce ne andiamo tutti non rimane nessuno a combattere e allora per forza la nave affonda. Vediamo quanto resisto
