From the article: "On Thursday, March 6, President Donald Trump issued an executive proclamation in honor of “Women’s History Month.”

“No longer will our Government promote radical ideologies that replace women with men in spaces and opportunities designed for women, or devastate families by indoctrinating our sons and daughters to begin a war with their own bodies,” the proclamation said."

Headline: The Trump Administration Has Made 150 Million American Workers Newly Vulnerable to Workplace Discrimination

Source: Center for American Progress

From the article: "Essentially, all employees and job seekers, a total of approximately 153 million Americans, benefit from the protections the EEOC provides. The Equal Pay Act—a law requiring equal pay for equal work that the EEOC enforces—covers virtually all employers, while other laws enforced by the EEOC apply to all but the smallest employers. Whether they work in the private sector or for the government, practically all employees and those applying for jobs are protected by the EEOC against illegal employer actions" (Annotations removed for clarity)

From the article: "Three major American civil rights organizations filed a lawsuit Wednesday in Washington, D.C., against the Trump administration, challenging executive orders that gut diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and erase federal recognition of transgender and nonbinary people. The lawsuit, National Urban League v. Trump, alleges that these orders violate constitutional protections and pose an existential threat to marginalized communities."

From the article: "The EEOC’s move to drop gender identity discrimination cases is a departure from the agency’s previous actions that have considered gender identity and sexual orientation to be protected characteristics from employment discrimination. In 2020, the Supreme Court ruled that gay, lesbian and transgender people are protected from employment discrimination, holding that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits employment discrimination based on sex and other characteristics, also encompasses sexual orientation and gender identity. The EEOC has listed sexual orientation and gender identity among legally protected characteristics, and last year, the agency said refusing to use a transgender employee’s preferred pronouns and preventing employees from using bathrooms that match their gender identity both constitute workplace harassment."

From the article: "Getting and keeping a regular job is out of reach for many transgender and gender-nonconforming (TGNC) people, and the experiences endured when they do have a job can be just as traumatic. Whether accused of using the “wrong” restroom, harassed for not matching one gender stereotype or another or being the only one in the office turned down for medically necessary health care, TGNC employees often face humiliating treatment and unfair policies every day of the week."

From the article: "Political campaigns in 2024 saw many Republicans — especially Donald Trump — and even some Democrats attack the inclusion of transgender females in girls’ and women’s sports, saying “men” shouldn’t be in these sports because of a supposed competitive advantage. On February 5, Trump signed an executive order called “No Men in Women’s Sports," with the White House claiming it is law. He warned that public schools and colleges that do not comply with the order would "risk their federal funding." But executive orders are not laws; they are directives issued by the president to federal agencies.

"Legal experts note that executive orders cannot override federal civil rights protections without congressional action and are expected to face swift legal challenges. This order is expected to face those challenges as well."

From the article: "New York State Attorney General Letitia James has advised health care providers in the state that failing to provide gender-affirming care to transgender minors violates New York antidiscrimination law.

"Donald Trump issued an executive order last week titled “Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation,” targets the use of puberty blockers, hormone therapies, and surgeries for anyone under 19, referring to them as “chemical and surgical mutilation.” It directs federal agencies to rescind policies supporting such treatments, withdraw funding from institutions that provide them, and enforce existing laws limiting access to these procedures. This comes even though these procedures are endorsed by every major medical organization."

From the article: “VCU Health and Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU have suspended gender-affirming medication and gender-affirming surgical procedures for those under 19 years old in response to a White House executive order and clear guidance from the state provided to VCU,” a hospital spokesperson told The Advocate in an email. “We are committed to ensuring that we’re always delivering care in accordance with the law. Appointments will be maintained to discuss specific care options for patients in compliance with the most recent guidance.”

From the article: "Emily Shilling, who has been openly transgender since 2019, is currently serving as a commander in the Navy with more than 19 years of service, including as a combat pilot who flew 60 missions in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

“I just want to continue serving my country, using the skills this nation invested in me as a fighter pilot and leader,” she said, stressing that she was speaking in her personal capacity. “For nearly two decades, I’ve upheld the highest standards of excellence, leading teams in combat and peace. All I ask is the opportunity to keep using my training and experience to serve this country with honor, courage and dedication.”
