President Trump signed a series of executive actions that would limit transgender and nonbinary people's rights by focusing on "gender ideology." But the term is loaded, without a universal definition.

The Trump administration on Wednesday ordered a shutdown of all federal programs that “promote or reflect gender ideology,” the latest action in service of the president’s pledge to root out “woke” ideology from the federal government and erase transgender identity from American society.

Through a series of executive orders signed in his first two weeks in office, President Trump is moving to eliminate the concept of “gender identity” — that a person can identify as something other than their biological sex — from the federal government, the military, public schools, and other federally funded institutions.
