Birth certificate; sex designated on must be the sex assigned at birth, and cannot be changed unless it is verified as clearly an error.

Summary

HB 1154 would make the sex on a Mississippi birth certificate fixed as the sex assigned at birth, allowing changes only if medical records show the original entry was an error and are signed by a parent or the delivering physician. It also requires that the sex shown on a driver's license match the birth certificate. The bill died in committee and did not become law.
