Kevin Stitt on Tuesday signed a bill that bans non-binary gender markers on birth certificates, enraging LGBT advocates.The Oklahoma State Department of Health agreed in a civil case last year to allow a nonbinary option for people who do not identify as either male or female.

The birth certificate in that case was issued to an Oklahoma-born Oregon resident who sued after the agency initially refused the request.
