Several sports governing bodies, including swimming, athletics and golf, have banned trans genders from competing in the women’s category at the elite level if they have gone through puberty.
According to White House officials who informed reporters on Wednesday morning, the latest order will empower the Department of Education to investigate how to implement the title IX of schools, is an American law that Federally federally banned sexual discrimination in financial -powered educational programs.
An administration official said that the executive order would change the position of the Biden administration, which said in April last year that LGBT students would be reserved by federal law, though it had about transgender athletes. Not specific guidance.
In addition, the White House sports bodies – such as the National College Jetts Athletics Association, or the NCAA – intend to discuss the concerns to meet female athletes and their parents to come to the White House.
The United States will do its best to prevent transgender athletes from competing against women in the International Olympic Committee competitions, which are taking place on the US soil, the official said.
White House officials have described these policies as widely popular with Americans and to ensure “justice” for women in sports, as well as ensuring the safety problem.
In a statement, Human Rights Campaign President Kelly Robinson said the order “exposes young people to harass and discriminate, and force people to question the gender of these children. The narrow theory is not about how they are considered to wear or watch. ” .
Ms Robinson added, “For many students, the game is about to be from somewhere.” “There are not parties that make life difficult for them.”

On January 20, in the first day of Trump, he signed a separate order demanding the federal government to state sexually sexually or female.
