Transgender Community On High Alert

After a leaked memo suggested the Trump administration wants to create a legal definition of sex as "a biological, immutable condition determined by genitalia at birth," The New York Times reports the transgender community is on high alert. During the Obama administration, Congress and federal agencies came down on the side of civil rights for transgender and gender-nonconforming people, building on years of court decisions. CNN reports Trump's new proposal seeks to undermine those protections.
