Donald Trump will sign an executive order declaring a federal policy that formally recognizes only two biological sexes—male and female—as he takes office. An incoming White House official disclosed the plan on Monday, stating, “What we’re doing today is defining that it is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes: male and female.”
The official also confirmed Trump’s intention to eliminate certain federal diversity programs. According to the source, the Department of Treasury once hosted a training course asserting that “all white people, regardless of how woke they are, contribute to racism.” Such initiatives, the administration believes, fuel division rather than promote inclusivity. “We’re going to end that,” said the official.
These moves signal a dramatic shift in federal policy, with potential consequences for transgender rights, anti-discrimination standards, and workplace diversity efforts. Critics argue the measures will erase protections for marginalized communities, while supporters claim they restore clarity and fairness in public policy. As Trump prepares to be sworn into office, these decisions mark the early days of an administration poised to roll back a number of Obama-era civil rights guidelines.
