Trump to sign executive order to keep men out of women's sports
Fulfilling another campaign promise to protect women's sports, President Donald Trump will sign his fourth EO regarding transgenders.
After three other executive orders pertaining to transgenders in the military – directives that the federal government will recognize only two genders and banning sex-change surgery for minors – President Donald Trump on Wednesday will sign his No Men in Women's Sports Executive Order on the 39th annual National Girls and Women in Sports Day.
The commemoration began in 1987 as a way to celebrate female participation in athletics.
A Gallup survey in May 2023 found that the vast majority of Americans support the requirement that transgender athletes compete in categories reflecting their birth gender.
Seventy percent of respondents supported the requirement, up from 62% in 2021.
