AI Summary: This is a policy document: an Executive Order that establishes definitions and policies regarding sex and gender in federal government operations. This regulation provides comprehensive guidelines for how the federal government will define and interpret sex and gender, strictly defining sex as a biological binary category. The order mandates that all federal agencies use definitions of "sex", "male", "female", "women", and "men" based on biological reproductive characteristics at conception. It requires government agencies to remove policies, forms, and communications that promote what the order terms "gender ideology", and to ensure that government-issued identification documents accurately reflect biological sex. The order instructs various federal departments to revise policies concerning single-sex spaces like prisons and shelters, prohibits federal funding for gender ideology or medical procedures intended to alter one's appearance to match a different sex, and directs the Attorney General to issue guidance protecting the expression of sex as a binary concept. Additionally, it rescinds several previous executive orders and guidance documents related to gender identity, and requires agencies to report on their implementation of these new directives within 120 days.
