The ACLU filed a lawsuit, Orr v. Trump, challenging the Executive Order impacting passports on February 7, 2025. 

More information about the lawsuit can be found here

On June 17, 2025, a federal court in ACLU’s Orr v. Trump case temporarily blocked enforcement of the Trump administration’s restrictive passport policy barring people from updating the sex marker on their passports.

The preliminary injunction allows many transgender, nonbinary, and intersex people to receive passports with accurate sex markers while this litigation is pending.

Please note that the government may appeal, and if a higher court pauses this ruling, the restrictive policy could return, and pending applications could also be affected. 

Please visit the national ACLU’s Q&A page for more information.
