Donald Trump signed an executive order prohibiting transgender athletes from participating in women’s sports, directing federal agencies to interpret rules as a ban on transgender individuals in women’s sports categories. This order is part of a broader set of measures aimed against the rights of transgender people. The Trump administration is also attempting to redefine gender at the federal level and prohibit gender changes for individuals under the age of 19. Following these decisions, some hospitals have stopped providing care to transgender youth, and prisons have isolated trans individuals.
