President Trump is expected to sign an executive order on National Girls and Women in Sports Day to prohibit biological men from competing in women's sports. This move comes after a federal judge blocked the Biden administration's attempt to redefine sex in Title IX as 'gender identity'. Trump has consistently advocated for fairness in women's sports, promising to address the issue on his first day in office.
President Donald Trump is anticipated to sign an executive order designed to exclude biological men from participating in women's sports, according to OutKick's confirmation on Tuesday. This executive order is scheduled to be implemented on National Girls and Women in Sports Day, Wednesday, a day dedicated to celebrating female athletes across various women's sports and those who champion equal access to sports for all girls and women.
During his presidential campaign, Trump emphasized fairness in women's sports as a key issue, ultimately securing victory over former Vice President Kamala Harris in the November election. In early January, a federal judge halted the Biden administration's attempt to redefine sex in Title IX as 'gender identity.' Subsequently, Trump's Department of Education instructed K-12 schools and higher education institutions that Title IX protections would be based on biological sex.Trump unequivocally stated in December his intention to end what he termed 'transgender lunacy,' declaring, 'And we will keep men out of women’s sports,' during a convention in Arizona. He further emphasized, 'And that will, likewise, be done on Day 1.' Trump asserted that under his administration, the United States government would officially recognize only two genders — male and female. During his acceptance of the Republican nomination for president in July, he reiterated his stance, proclaiming, 'We will not have men playing in women’s sports, that will end immediately.' He also appeared on Barstool Sports’ 'Bussin’ with the Boys' podcast alongside former NFL players Taylor Lewan and Will Compton, dismissing the notion of trans inclusion in women's sports as 'ridiculous.'
