the validity of a passport is meaningless if the border guard refuses to accept it because the government no longer recognizes the existence of gender.
It’s like rescinding the memo—the policy is still there, adherence is just stochastic and harder to track when you delegate to individuals.

As for the 'stripping rights' part, the EO only removes the right for trans people to obtain or update their passport, it won't invalidate their existing federal ID.
OK but taking away people's ability to get a passport is in fact stripping them of rights!
