President Donald Trump reportedly planning to sign an executive order to keep biological men out of women’s sports.
According to Outkick, Trump’s executive order will come on National Girls and Women in Sports Day on Wednesday, which celebrates female athletes across women’s sports and those who are committed to providing equal access to sports for all females.
Trump made fairness in women’s sports a significant campaign issue on his way to winning the presidential election over former Vice President Kamala Harris in November.
At the beginning of January, a federal judge blocked the Biden administration’s attempt to redefine sex in Title IX as “gender identity.” Then, Trump’s Department of Education told K-12 schools and higher learning institutions that Title IX protections would be recognized on the basis of biological sex.
Trump made clear in December he was going to end the “transgender lunacy.”
“And we will keep men out of women’s sports,” he said in part at a convention in Arizona. “And that will, likewise, be done on Day 1. Should I do Day 1, Day 2 or Day 3? How about Day 1? Under the Trump administration, it will be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders — male and female. It doesn’t sound too complicated. Does it?”
