Jan 20, 2025, 02:44 AM

President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order titled 'Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government' on his first day in office. The order aims to establish a government-wide recognition of the biological reality of two sexes, male and female. Key provisions include ending the housing of biological men in women's prisons, prohibiting self-identification on passports, eliminating mandates for the use of preferred pronouns, erasing gender-neutral IDs, and prohibiting transitioning for prisoners. The move is part of Trump's broader initiative to counteract what he describes as gender ideology extremism within the federal government.
