Things to know about how Trump's policies target transgender people

President Donald Trump has targeted the rights of transgender people in executive orders in his first two weeks back in office. He wants to use a federal definition of the sexes that excludes them, a reversal from President Joe Biden's administration policies that sought to expand legal protections. Trump has opened the door to ousting transgender service members from the military and is halting government funding for gender-affirming health care for young people. He also wants to reverse state and local policies that say students' preferred pronouns should be used in schools. Some of the orders are already facing court challenges and others are expected to.
