The United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC) has revised its policy to comply with the executive order signed by Donald Trump, which bans transgender athletes from competing in women's competitions. The USOPC will work with various organizations to ensure a level playing field for women. The executive order also imposes visa restrictions on transgender athletes and applies not only to high school sports but also to international competitions. Critics say the measure violates minority rights.
