Trump's 'two sexes' executive order comes on heels of SCOTUS accepting another challenge to LGBT agenda
Fox News
In his first week in office, President Donald Trump has enshrined only two genders, male and female, in federal policy through one of his slew of executive actions.
Last week, SCOTUS agreed to hear Mahmoud v. Taylor, which would determine whether schools can force teachers to read LGBTQ books to elementary-age children despite parental objections. At issue is whether parents will have the right to opt their children out of such instructions. Jamie Joseph is a writer who covers politics. She leads Fox News Digital coverage of the Senate.
"If the Supreme Court's doing its job, it shouldn't impact [the case decisions] at all," Heritage Foundation senior legal fellow Sarah Marshall Perry told Fox News Digital in an interview. "What Trump's executive order was is a statement of really what the policies are going to be for the executives going forward into the new administration. And he did exactly what [former President Joe] Biden did with his executive order expanding sex to include gender identity."
