Trump administration issued executive actions affecting LGBTQ+ health

KFF reported on October 26, 2026, that President Trump began issuing multiple executive actions starting his second term, some of which directly affect health programs and policies for LGBTQ+ individuals.

These actions are documented in a tracker that lists each executive action by date, outlines provisions relevant to LGBTQ+ health, and describes potential impacts including ongoing litigation.

The tracker aims to provide a comprehensive overview of these executive actions, focusing specifically on those that address or affect health needs of LGBTQ+ people.

KFF noted that the resource was originally published in February 2025 and is updated as needed to reflect new developments related to these policies and their implications.

The overview does not include administrative actions impacting LGBTQ+ people that are unrelated to health programs or policies.

This resource is part of KFF's broader health policy research and news efforts, which include public opinion research and in-depth journalism on health issues.
