Donald Trump has vowed to take swift action to ban transgender athletes from competing in women's sports as he returns to office. This promise is part of his broader agenda to impose strict immigration policies and address what he terms "transgender insanity" in schools.
Trump's plans for transgender athletes involve interpreting "sex" under Title IX as the gender assigned at birth, effectively reversing the Biden administration's interpretation of sex as "gender identity". This move could have significant implications for transgender athletes, particularly at the high school and collegiate levels.
At the high school level, rules for transgender athletes vary from state to state, with about half of the states having enacted legislation that bars transgender athletes from competing in the category that aligns with their gender identity. Collegiately, the NCAA has established policies for transgender athletes, requiring those assigned male at birth to complete at least one year of testosterone suppression therapy before being eligible to compete on a women's team.

Trump's vow to ban transgender athletes from women's sports has sparked controversy, with some arguing that it discriminates against transgender individuals and others seeing it as a necessary measure to maintain fairness in women's sports. As Trump takes office, it remains to be seen how he will implement these policies and what impact they will have on transgender athletes and the broader LGBTQ+ community.
