President Donald Trump is set to sign executive orders on Monday that will mark significant shifts in federal policy. The orders will roll back protections for transgender individuals and terminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs within the federal government, in line with Trump's campaign promises.
One of the orders will assert that the federal government recognizes only two immutable sexes: male and female, based on whether individuals are born with eggs or sperm. This change is framed as a measure to protect women from what is described as 'gender extremism.'
