Risks & tensions

Text references multiple administration policies (PACT Act, American Rescue Plan, transgender service reversal, military justice reforms) but these are descriptive, not directive; proclamation itself contains no binding policy changes
Inclusivity language may draw polarized reactions but is commemorative, not regulatory
