On a recent Friday, federal and state health officials were compelled to comply with a mandate from the Trump administration to eliminate programs that support gender ideology. This directive included halting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and removing public references to them. Various approaches were taken at health agencies, with significant term removals from CDC communications, bans on L.G.B.T.Q. displays in some VA Hospitals, and regulations restricting bathroom access based on biological sex. These actions represent a stark reversal of efforts to foster inclusivity in healthcare and research for marginalized groups.
Federal and state health officials faced a mandatory compliance deadline to discontinue programs promoting gender ideology and remove related materials, reflecting a significant policy shift.
At federal health agencies, there was a comprehensive effort to erase references to key terms like transgender and L.G.B.T. from official communications and websites.
