Caitlyn Jenner Says Passport Lists 'M' Under Trump Policy, Seeks Help From President

Her case spotlights travel hurdles caused by the administration’s birth‑sex passport rule.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets on Friday reported Jenner’s claim that her renewed U.S. passport now shows a male marker, which she says makes it unusable for international travel.
  • She said she tried to fix the issue through State Department forms and by sending a female birth certificate, but the passport was returned without any change.
  • Jenner said she left a letter for President Trump at Mar‑a‑Lago about two months ago asking for help and has not received a response.
  • The State Department’s rule follows a January 2025 order limiting passports to “M” or “F” based on sex at birth, and the Supreme Court allowed enforcement in November 2025 while legal challenges continue.
  • Rights groups warn that IDs that do not match a person’s lived gender can invite harassment or denial of services, and Jenner said the mismatch could also complicate voter ID requirements.
