    U.S. House Adopts Gender-Neutral Language

    U.S. House Adopts Gender-Neutral Language for Rules Document

    The U.S. House of Representatives has approved gender-neutral language in the official House rules and established a permanent Office of Diversity and Inclusion.

    These measures were part of a rules package adopted Monday, The Hill reports. The House approves a set of rules at the beginning of each session of Congress, and this week marks the start of the 117th Congress.

    The changes mean that the rules document will use language such as “parent,” “child,” and “sibling” instead of “mother,” “father,” “son,” daughter,” “brother,” and “sister.” It will also replace “chairman” with “chair,” “seamen” with “seafarers,” and “himself” and “herself” with “themself.” The Office of the Whistleblower Ombudsman will become the Office of the Whistleblower Ombuds.

    These changes apply only to the rules document and do not prevent House members from using gendered language in any other communication, although some right-wing politicians and commentators have contended that gendered words have been banned.

    [...]

    In addition to the provision on gender-neutral language, the rules will promote inclusion through the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, which will “facilitate a diverse workforce,” and by mandating that standing committees address inequities relating to race, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, and other characteristics, Pelosi’s press release states.

    Other parts of the rules package expand protection for whistleblowers, establish a committee on economic disparity, strengthen ethics regulations, continue the work of committees on climate change and COVID-19, extend remote voting during the pandemic, and make it more difficult for the House minority to amend legislation at the last minute.

    Oh for $#@!s sake.

    ABSOLUTE BRAINWASHING - GUILT OF HAVING A GENDER IDENTITY
    Especially a Gender Identity that they are quite afraid of. *cough* ALPHA MALE. Uh oh thats a four letter word now I am going to jail because I said it.

    By destroying the LANGUAGE, which is what you think in your head, it disables your ability TO THINK. This is an indirect assault on a persons ability to think because of the way the law is worded. This may be more aimed at brainwashing the sellouts in Congress as they are just as susceptible to Brainwashing as anyone else.

    The FAILURE of the United States Government to operate and maintain an
    Honest Money System , which frees the ordinary man from the clutches of the money manipulators, is the single largest contributing factor to the World's current Economic Crisis.

    No such thing as "gender." It's sex, not gender.

    It makes sense if that person is possessed by Legion.

    "They," might be referring to the demons inside.
