LGBT activists and groups are actively working to challenge the gender-related executive orders signed by President Donald Trump. These orders aim to address what he calls 'gender ideology extremism.' Legal challenges are mounting against these directives, which were signed in late January.
Among the controversial orders are the reinstatement of the ban on transgender troops in the military, a prohibition on federal funding for sex changes for minors, and a directive requiring federal agencies to recognize only two sexes, male and female, in official standards of conduct.
