Two-gender policy of Trump: A big blow to transgender students as the ‘golden age of America begins’

In his inaugural address, President Donald Trump announced a policy that recognizes only two genders, erasing the recognition of transgender and nonbinary identities. This move threatens transgender students by invalidating their identities on school records, increasing vulnerability to bullying, and limiting access to gender-affirming facilities. The policy also places the U.S. at odds with more inclusive global trends. Legal challenges are expected, but the future of protections for transgender students remains uncertain.
