Kansas bars changing transgender people's birth certificates to reflect gender identity

Kansas passed a law barring the state from legally recognizing transgender identities.
Kansas will no longer amend birth certificates to reflect transgender people's gender identities.
The law defines male and female based on sex assigned at birth.
Kansas joins a few other states that don't allow changing gender markers on birth certificates and licenses.
Supporters saw it as restricting transgender facility use, while opponents viewed it as erasing transgender identities.
