This article in The New Mexico Independent seems to offer good news for the state's trans people:

    The New Mexico Motor Vehicles Division in July established a new form to help facilitate changing a person's gender designation on a drivers license. In doing so, the MVD clarified that gender surgery is not a requirement for a person seeking to change their gender. All that is required is the signature of a medical provider or clinician, stating their opinion that the person will not change their gender again in the foreseeable future.
