President-elect Donald Trump intends to issue executive orders upon taking office to eliminate federal diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs and limit official recognition of gender to male and female, an incoming White House official announced Monday.
The official stated federal funds would no longer support “gender ideology,” a term often used to describe non-traditional views on sex and gender, or transition-related medical procedures. Further details on the timing and scope of these orders were not provided.
The potential impact on the military remains unclear. During his first term, Trump banned transgender individuals from military service, a policy later overturned by President Biden in 2021.
The DEI and gender-focused orders are part of a broader wave of executive actions previewed by Trump’s team, which include policies on immigration and energy.
