Far-left Wisconsin governor orders state to offer gender-neutral birth certificates for parents who don't ID as mom or dad



New parents in Wisconsin who just can't decide if they are mothers or fathers just got good news this week from their liberal Democratic governor: Starting July 1, the Badger State will begin offering "gender-neutral" parent options on babies' birth certificates.

The new paperwork will include "parent-parent" along with "mother-father," the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

The move is all part of left-wing Gov. Tony Evers' desire to force trans language to be part of all official government documents.

Evers and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services announced the change in a statement Monday.

"This change reflects my and my administration's commitment to gender-neutral terminology and to recognizing that Wisconsin families are diverse and should be valued and respected," Evers said in the statement. "I am glad to see this change being made as we continue to update our state policies and procedures to better reflect the Wisconsinites we serve."

He also took to Twitter to spread the news:

DHS Secretary-designee Karen Timberlake echoed the governor's left-wing agenda.

"We are working hard to make Wisconsin a more inclusive, equitable, and just state and this update ensures our LGBTQ Wisconsinites are seen and heard when welcoming a child into the world," she said in the governor's statement. "Updating our birth certificate forms is one important step on the long road to adopting gender-neutral language in all of our external documents."

The governor's order also allows parents with un-woke, old-school birth certificates to get new ones with the "parent-parent" option.

State GOP Rep. Gae Magnafici, chairwoman of the Assembly Family Law Committee, called the order "something that even the best satire writers cannot imagine," the Journal Sentinel said.

"The far-left liberals are at it again. Instead of acknowledging something as simple as a baby coming from a mom and dad, they deny science," Magnafici said, the newspaper reported. "As the Assembly chair of Family Law, a nurse, and a mom, I am insulted. I'm calling on Governor Evers to stop downplaying womanhood, stop downplaying motherhood, and stop downplaying settled science."

Committee wants FAA to replace terms like ‘cockpit,’ ‘manmade’ with gender-neutral language



America's airline industry may soon be getting a woke language makeover.

An advisory committee this week recommended that the Federal Aviation Administration replace burdensome gender-exclusive terms such as "cockpit," "airman," and "manmade" with more inclusive language such as "flight deck," "aviator," and machine made."

The recommendations were made in a report issued Wednesday by the Drone Advisory Committee and obtained by the Washington Post.

In the report, the committee — a subset of the FAA reportedly made up of representatives from 17 organizations in industry, labor, airports, and local government — suggested that the drone industry should begin adopting gender-specific language to evolve along with society, and so should the FAA.

"As it grows and matures, the drone industry has an opportunity to use and embrace gender-neutral language that defines it as an industry that is respectful, welcoming, and brings value to the receiver," the report stated. "We look forward to continuing to work closely in assisting the FAA, the drone community and the aviation industry as a whole in supporting and adopting these recommendations."

Among the "gender-specific" terms recommended to be replaced were "airman," "cockpit," "repairman," "manmade," "manned aviation," "unmanned aviation" -- and, of course, "he" and "she" and "him" and "her."

Replacing them would be more inclusive terms such as "aviator," "flight deck," "technician," "machine made," "traditional aviation," and "uncrewed aviation."

The committee argued that exclusionary language is a big part of the reason that "women and other marginalized groups are significantly underrepresented in the aviation industry."

"Avoiding imprecise and exclusionary language can help create a work environment where all workers feel safe sharing their views, thereby improving psychological and operational safety," the report noted. "Research shows that the utilization of gender-neutral language can lead to a more inclusive environment that draws more people to the industry and helps keep them there."

What's more, the committee argued, is that the aviation industry has a long history of "homogenous gender and racial participation."

While language changes won't automatically result in a more diverse workforce, the committee hopes that the changes will serve as an important first step. And it appears the FAA is on board.

In response to questioning from the Washington Post, Deputy FAA Administrator Bradley Mims confirmed that the agency plans to review the committee's recommendations.

"Implementing gender-neutral language into the aviation community is an important step towards achieving diversity and inclusion in the workforce," Mims said.

The FAA is not the first institution to consider implementing gender-neutral language. NASA made the move in 2006. Earlier this year, House Democrats proposed eliminating all gender-specific language in the chamber.

Tulsi Gabbard torches her own party for 'gender-inclusive' agenda: 'Defies basic established science'



Democrat Tulsi Gabbard trashed her own party on Monday over the Democratic Party's new push for a genderless agenda in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Gabbard was a member of the House until Sunday. She did not seek re-election after running for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020.

What's the background?

As TheBlaze reported, Democrats unveiled proposed changes for the House rules last week, which included eliminating "gendered" language from the rules in exchange for "gender-inclusive" language.

According to House Rules Committee Chairman James McGovern (D-Mass.), "changing pronouns and familial relationships" in the official House rules is necessary in order to "honor all gender identities."

The genderless agenda became the focus of mockery after Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) ended a prayer in the House chamber on Sunday by saying "amen and a-woman."

"Amen," the traditional prayer ending, is a Hebrew word that is completely detached from biological gender. Hebrew is an inflected language, meaning grammatical gender is built into the language. Grammatical gender, of course, is not related to biological gender.

What did Gabbard say?

Speaking with Fox News host Tucker Carlson, Gabbard called the genderless agenda the "height of hypocrisy" and said it reveals how out of touch Democrats are.

"It's the height of hypocrisy for people who claim to be the champions of rights for women to deny the very biological existence of women," Gabbard said.

"It's mind-blowing because it shows just how out of touch with reality and the struggles of everyday Americans people in Congress are," Gabbard added. "It shows that, you know, their first act as as this new Congress could have been to make sure that elderly Americans are able to get the COVID vaccine ... but instead of doing something that could actually help save people's lives, they're choosing instead to say, 'Well, you can't say "mother" or "father" in any of this congressional language.' It's astounding."

The progressive attempt to undermine science by erasing gender amounts to "denying my existence, denying the existence of of biological women," Gabbard said.

"It defies common sense; it defies basic established science. It just doesn't make any sense," she explained.

Anything else?

The House approved the rule changes on Monday in a vote that went down party lines.

"We made this change for the sake of inclusion, not exclusion," McGovern said of the language changes, the Hill reported.

Now, instead of words like "mother," "father," "son," "daughter," "himself," "herself," among others, the rules say "parents," "siblings," and "themselves."

Democrats propose major change to House rules, eliminating family language for 'gender-inclusive' alternatives



House Democrats unveiled proposed changes to the House rules on Friday, including the elimination of all "gendered" language and to make permanent the recently established House "Office of Diversity and Inclusion."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Rules Committee Chairman James McGovern (D-Mass.) claimed that "changing pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be gender neutral" are necessary changes meant to "honor all gender identities."

The proposed changes would establish "gender-inclusive" language in the House rules by eliminating "gendered" language.

Instead of words like "father, mother, son, daughter, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, first cousin, nephew, niece, husband, wife, father-in-law, mother-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, stepfather, stepmother, stepson, stepdaughter, stepbrother, stepsister, half brother, half sister, grandson, or granddaughter," the proposed rules say the House should use language like "parent, child, sibling, parent's sibling, first cousin, sibling's child, spouse, parent-in-law, child-in-law, sibling-in-law, stepparent, stepchild, stepsibling, half-sibling, or grandchild."

The proposed rules also demand the following changes:

  • "Seafarers" instead of "seamen"
  • "Chair" instead of "chairman"
  • "Resign" instead of "submit his or her resignation"
  • "Such Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner serves" instead of "he or she serves"
  • "Such Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner holds" instead of "he or she holds"
  • "Themselves" instead of "himself" or "herself"

"Thanks to the leadership of Chairman McGovern and our Members, Democrats have crafted a package of unprecedented, bold reforms, which will make the House more accountable, transparent and effective in our work to meet the needs of the American people," Pelosi said in a statement.

The rules will be voted on after the 117th Congress is sworn in on Sunday.

In response, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) mocked the proposed changes.

"This is stupid. Signed, - A father, son, and brother," McCarthy tweeted.
