Trump Signs Sweeping Executive Order Targeting ‘Gender Ideology’ In Schools
HuffPost
LGBTQ advocates say the order threatens teachers that openly support their trans students.
President Donald Trump signed a broad executive order to prohibit schools that receive federal funding from providing what the administration describes as “gender ideology and discriminatory equity ideology” in the classroom.
The executive order on “Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling,” which Trump signed Wednesday, also directs the incoming attorney general to work alongside state attorneys general and local district attorneys to “file appropriate actions against K-12 teachers and school officials who violate the law by: sexually exploiting minors; unlawfully practicing medicine ... without the requisite license; or otherwise unlawfully facilitating the social transition of a minor.”
The order further calls to restore the 1776 Commission, an advisory committee that Trump established during his first term to promote “patriotic education” around early American history.
Social transition is not a medical procedure. It refers to when a person is able to live publicly as their gender identity and often includes using or trying out a new name, set of pronouns, clothing and hairstyles.
The order explicitly targets schools that allow transgender students to use bathrooms or participate in school sports that align with their gender identity.
