Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen signed an executive order on Aug. 30 directing state agencies to define “female” and “male” as an individual’s biological sex in a move aimed at protecting children and preserving women’s rights.

The executive order (pdf) establishes the “Women’s Bill of Rights,” which will go into effect immediately and applies to the executive branch, including state agencies, boards, and commissions.
