Terry Schilling, president of the American Principles Project, presented DCNF with three promises President Trump made during the campaign to counter gender ideology.
“First, he has promised to defund gender reassignment procedures for minors at HHS and across the federal government, so we will no longer pay for them. We can do that through regulation,” Schilling told DCNF.
“Second, he has promised to defund DEI and transgender curriculum in schools, but he can also do that through executive order. And third, women’s sports, Title IX and directs all federal departments to interpret Title IX as intended, and that is biological sex.”
“He can do all of those things from day one,” Schilling said.
In December, President Trump said He told the audience that his administration would “remove transgender insanity from our schools once and for all, and we are going to remove transgender people from our schools very quickly.”
DCNF spoke with multiple policy experts about how President Trump could quickly begin disentangling transgender issues from the federal government on the first day of his second presidential term.

Jay W. Richards director of Heritage Foundation The Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Life, Faith and Family tells the DCNF that President Trump could use the power of executive orders and presidential influence to reverse the influence of gender ideology in many government agencies. spoke.
“There are important things President Trump can do in his first 100 days in office, whether by executive order or from the bully pulpit, to reverse the infiltration of gender ideology into the laws and institutions promoted by his predecessor. There are some things. [President] Joe Biden,” Richards told DCNF.
“He can issue an EO that provides solid biological definitions of male and female. He can limit federal funding for brutal ‘sex changing’ drugs and surgeries, especially on minors.” may be sought.

Richards told DCNF that while a president cannot single-handedly eradicate gender ideology, President Trump has an opportunity to establish the direction his administration will take on this critically important issue.
“Presidents cannot accomplish everything alone, but with efforts like this, President Trump will be able to set the tone and direction for his new administration on one of the most important political and cultural issues of our time. We can do it,” Richards said.
May Mailman director Independent Women’s Law Center, Editorial How can President Trump protect women’s sports and private spaces by rescinding “all guidance that unlawfully states that Title IX covers gender identity?”
“Gender identity” is a term used by transgender activists to describe an individual’s imaginary gender. Transgender activists believe that a person’s imaginary gender is as real as their physical gender and should have equal weight in society and the law.
In April 2024, the Biden administration expanded Title IX regulations that prohibit discrimination based on sex to include gender identity, giving men who claim female gender identity full access to women’s sports and private spaces. granted legal access. A federal judge recently struck down expanded Title IX regulations in a lawsuit brought against the Biden administration by six states, including Tennessee.
Mehlman also said President Trump could further protect sexual sovereignty by clearly defining “woman” to mean “individuals of the sex with the reproductive role of producing eggs.” .
“Long-standing regulations state that schools “must provide equal athletic opportunities for boys and girls.” As if any clarification was needed, President Trump’s Department of Education has declared that equal opportunity requires a significant number of women-only teams and private spaces (as the law has been understood for decades). I should add,” Mehlman wrote.
“And, as if clarification was needed, the regulations should define female to mean an individual belonging to the sex with the reproductive role of producing eggs,” he added.

Rasmussen told DCNF that Trump has a huge opportunity to eliminate gender ideology from scientific research and medicine.
“The biggest blow to the federal government is funding. They can put a lot of strings attached to the federal money that goes to states and agencies. So they can step in there and say, ‘Look, extreme gender ideologies. I think there’s an opportunity to say, ‘If we’re perpetuating this and we’re hurting our kids, maybe we need to rethink our entire relationship in terms of expanding federal funding,”’ Rasmussen told DCNF. .
“There are also research avenues,” she continued. “We’re seeing NIH funding questionable and dubious research while completely falling behind in areas like funding research into the harms of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to adolescents.” We’ve seen that when it comes to good medical research and science, there’s a lot that can be done to get the ship back on track.”

Rasmussen believes President Trump can make a quick impact through regulation and rulemaking.
“There’s a lot of room for regulatory change through rulemaking, guidance, etc. So this is something that President Trump could unilaterally move forward with and make big changes pretty quickly,” Rasmussen said. Ta.
