Trump’s Executive Order: A Closer Look
President Trump, 78, unveiled the new legislation amid his ongoing criticism of transgender participation in women’s sports. During his announcement, he stated, “We will defend the proud tradition of female athletes. From now on, women’s sports will be only for women. The war on women’s sports is over.” He further explained that this executive order is one element of a sweeping effort to “reclaim our culture and our laws.” The policy instructs the Education Department to alert schools that permitting transgender athletes to compete will violate federal laws designed to prevent sex discrimination.
