Groups that oppose gender ideology, including parental rights and religious organizations, have embraced President Donald Trump’s executive order against the theory and funding that promotes it, while proponents have vowed to resist his agenda.
Trump signed the executive order, “Defending Women From Gender Ideology and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government,” on Jan. 20, his first day in office, and said in his inaugural address that the new administration will end government policies that try to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.”
