President Donald Trump on Feb. 5 signed an executive order barring transgender athletes from participating in girls’ and women’s sports, following through on his discriminatory 2024 presidential campaign pledge to kick trans athletes to the curb.
Like other recent orders, the Trump administration’s latest executive order misgenders trans individuals and uses humiliating and false language to refer to trans athletes in a bid to justify the directive. The order is deceptively called “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.”
