The order describes trans women as men and directs federal agencies to keep them out of \u201cintimate spaces\u201d designed for women. It targets trans people\u2019s identity documents and health care, and it narrowly defines sex in a way that aims to erase the very concept of trans and nonbinary people.<\/p>\n
In the week since, the administration has halted transgender people\u2019s passport applications, transferred incarcerated trans women to solitary confinement and moved to bar transgender troops from serving in the military – an effort that was met with an immediate legal challenge. On Wednesday, the Office of Personnel Management ordered federal programs promoting \u201cgender ideology\u201d to be shut down and their employees put on leave. A day earlier, Trump directed federal agencies to begin crafting policies that could cut off young people\u2019s access to transition care nationwide. And he has done so in orders that describe trans people as dishonorable and \u201cmutilated,\u201d lacking \u201chumility and selflessness.\u201d”<\/p>\n
