A two-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit unleashed a previously blocked Arizona law Tuesday requiring transgender people to submit a written statement from a doctor that they had a sex reassignment surgery in order to change their birth certificate.

“The panel held that Arizona’s birth certificate amendment statute does not violate the equal protection clause,” U.S. Circuit Judge Roopali Desai, a Joe Biden appointee, wrote in a 26-page opinion.
