AI Summary: This is a policy document - specifically an Executive Order that establishes policy regarding medical treatments for minors related to gender transition. This regulation prohibits federal funding, support, or promotion of medical interventions aimed at changing a child's sex, which the order defines as "chemical and surgical mutilation" for individuals under 19 years old. The order requires various federal agencies to take specific actions, including rescinding policies based on World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) guidance, defunding medical institutions that provide such treatments, and excluding such treatments from federal health insurance programs like TRICARE, FEHB, and PSHB. The Department of Health and Human Services is directed to review existing literature on treating children with gender dysphoria, and the Department of Justice is instructed to prioritize investigations and potential legal actions related to these medical practices. The order also requires agency heads to report on their progress in implementing these directives within 60 days and provides mechanisms for coordination and enforcement across federal agencies.
