“I think the ideal policy for government with respect to [trans rights] is that your sex is your biological sex,” Sprigg said. “My view is, that if your biological sex is unambiguous at birth -- if your internal sex organs, your external genitalia, and your chromosomal makeup all are unequivocal in declaring you to be of one sex – then that is your sex for life, and that is your only sexual identity that the government will recognize.”

Maybe this wording will do. Sending it to the state ratifying conventions I think gives this amendment a better shot at becoming part of the Constitution.

Quote:
JOINT RESOLUTION

Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to prohibit recognition of change of sex of non-intersex persons and to prohibit the use of funds or law to require the provision of sex change services.

Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled (two-thirds of each House concurring therein), That the following article is proposed as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which shall be valid to all intents and purposes as part of the Constitution when ratified by the conventions of three-fourths of the several States within seven years after the date of its submission for ratification:

``Article--

``Section 1. A person who has XY chromosomes and is born with a phallus measuring at least one inch in length shall thereafter be recognized as male in all public documents and a person who has XX chromosomes and is born with a vulva shall thereafter be recognized as female in all public documents, regardless of any attempts to modify the appearance or function of any part of the body, whether by use of hormonal replacement therapy, genital surgery, or any other chemical or surgical process or procedure.

``Section 2. A person who does not meet either definition in the First Section of this Article shall have the sex determined according to law and medical practice.

``Section 3. No public funds shall be appropriated and nothing in this Constitution shall be construed to require public funds to be used to attempt a process or procedure to modify the appearance or function of any part of the body that is designed to imitate the opposite sex of a person meeting either the male or the female definition in the First Section of this Article, neither shall law or regulation be used to require the provision of funds of corporations or private businesses or persons, including insurance companies, for the same, except insofar as to enforce legal contracts between non-governmental parties."


I wonder if I can just email this in.
