Puerto Rico's Supreme Court approves 'X' as a third gender option on birth certificates.

Puerto Rico's Supreme Court has approved a third gender option, 'X,' on birth certificates for non-binary and gender-nonconforming individuals, following a lawsuit. This decision, seen as a step towards equality, comes seven years after a federal court ordered Puerto Rico to allow transgender individuals to change their gender markers. Governor Jenniffer González Colón is awaiting recommendations from the Justice Department regarding the implementation of the ruling.
