Donald Trump has signed 152 executive orders since the start of his term this year. The government runs our country with the goal to protect us. As a citizen it is important to know what is happening with the government and to be informed. In this article there are summaries of the executive orders that were signed this year that act on sex, gender, and equity.
Impact on Connecticut
Something important to note about these orders is that CT is refusing to partake in the removal of DEI in education. The state is filing lawsuits against the federal government and the Trump Administration. States were issued letters to confirm their compliance with the DEI bill, and CT refused to sign it.
Although some of these orders may not affect you directly, they will have an impact on your friends, family, community, and the country as a whole. These orders are more than just a small change. There is a big shift happening in the world, and your opinions matter.
