Hello. I am new to Equality Delaware, so I hope that I am doing this right, please forgive me if I am going about this the wrong way. I was referred to Equality Delaware by the National Center for Transgender Equality in regards to an issue that my Spouse Leena and I have been having. A little about me for background. I am a 38 year old Transgender Woman and I have been married for eight amazing years. When I came out as a Trans-Woman, I completed the entire process for fully, legally, transitioning to Female; name and gender change through the Courts, Social Security, the DMV, my ID and Birth Certificate, everything has been updated to Mira Tallie and Female, as it should be. When Leena and I went to Vital Statistics and the Justice of the Peace to change my name and Gender on our Marriage License and, thus, to change our marriage license to a Same Sex marriage license, we were told that doing so was impossible. The folks at Vital Stats and even the Justice of the Peace were in full support, they simply had no ability to make the needed changes. Apparently, there is nothing in their software that allows for this and no legislative president either. We reached out to a local Senator and even the Delaware Atterney General to see what could be done, with no response, so I wanted to reach out to you folks at Equality Delaware. With all of the work and support for Same Sex marriages and the LGBT community that you have given, I wanted to get in touch. Thanks in advance for any advice or guidance that you may be able to give. Take care and GOD bless.
