President Donald Trump signed an executive order recognizing only two sexes, male and female, as "unchangeable biological classifications." This move mandates federal identification documents to reflect "sex" instead of "gender." Trump also repealed 78 executive actions from the Biden administration promoting diversity, equity, and LGBTQ+ rights. His administration has ended policies addressing discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation. Trump criticized diversity and inclusion programs as disadvantaging white men and vowed to create a "colorblind and merit-based" society. LGBTQ+ advocates condemned the rollback, highlighting its impact on marginalized communities. This aligns with Trump’s campaign promises to counter “woke” culture.
