Bɾоadeɾ Agenda

The pledge is part of a broader push by the president-elect to reverse policies enacted during the Biden administration, which embraced progressive stances on gender identity. Trump framed these actions as essential to protecting traditional values, restoring fairness, and safeguarding women’s rights.

The announcement solidifies Trump’s focus on social and cultural issues as a key pillar of his upcoming presidency, energizing his conservative base ahead of his January inauguration.
