Day one action:
Defining 'sex' and ending DEI programs
Trump will sign an executive order on Monday that says it's the policy of the United States to recognize two biologically distinct sexes — male and female — an incoming White House official told reporters on a preview conference call on Monday.
"These are sexes that are not changeable, and they are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality," the official said.
The change will require government agencies to use the definitions on documents like passports, visas and employee records the official said. Taxpayer funds will not be allowed to be used for "transition services," the official said.
A second order will end diversity, equity and inclusion programs in the federal government, the official said, giving as examples environmental justice programs in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, as well as diversity training.
