On January 20, 2025, President Trump is set to sign an executive order titled 'Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government.' This order aims to establish a government-wide recognition of the biological reality of two sexes, defining male and female explicitly. It will also address various policies related to gender identity, including the prohibition of housing biological men in women’s prisons and the elimination of self-identification on passports. The executive order reflects a broader push against what supporters describe as 'gender ideology.'
