President Joe Biden’s administration announced Monday that it would reinterpret “sex” in the context of healthcare anti-discrimination laws to include “sexual orientation” and “gender identity.”
The move reverses a Trump administration policy that defined “sex” as “determined by biology.”
American Principles Project President Terry Schilling said that though the HHS announcement is painted as “all about lifesaving care for transgender people,” the move is “a way for the federal government to use its full weight and coercion to do the most controversial aspects of the gender identity stuff.”
