Allies and friends,
This past week brought significant actions in the pursuit of fairness in women’s sports and the protection of children:
Female athletes joined President Trump in signing an executive order to protect women’s sports. Following this order, the NCAA announced a policy change restricting male student-athletes from participating in women’s sports.
Since January 28, eight major hospitals across the U.S. have suspended transgender interventions on minors following an executive order banning such procedures. However, as these policies take effect, hospitals are facing strong opposition.

Hospitals Begin to Suspend Transgender Interventions
Following an executive order issued by President Trump to rigorously enforce laws prohibiting or limiting chemical and surgical interventions on minors, at least 4 major hospitals in New York, Virginia, Colorado, and Washington, D.C., have already suspended these destructive and life-altering procedures.
No Men in Women’s Sports!
Last week, many young female athletes joined President Trump at the White House for the signing of the executive order ‘Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.’
Riley Gaines – American swimmer and activist against transgender participants – celebrates this as a ‘big win’.
NCAA Announces Student-Athlete Policy Change
On February 6, the NCAA announced a policy change restricting transgender-identifying male students from participating in women’s sports. The new policy limits competition exclusively to students with a female biological sex.
Hospitals Continue to Suspend Trans Surgeries
Following an executive order banning chemical and surgical interventions on minors, eight major hospitals across the U.S. have already suspended these procedures.
As these changes take effect, hospitals are facing strong opposition from protesters and legal challenges from families seeking to reinstate what they refer to as ‘transgender care.’
