Analysis: Republican National Committee
POLLS SHOW WOMEN ARE REJECTING BIDEN AND DEMOCRATS
- Biden's radical policies have waged a war on women across the country, leading to women increasingly rejecting Biden – and the Democrat Party – for failing to best represent their interests.
- Biden's approval rating is at only 36 percent among women, with a majority of women disapproving of the way Biden is handing the economy.
- An overwhelming 75 percent of women disapprove of the job the Democrat-controlled Congress is doing.
- Between skyrocketing inflation and far-left policies, it's no wonder why 89 percent of females believe the country is on the wrong track.
THE BIDEN ECONOMY IS LEAVING WOMEN BEHIND
- Women and families are suffering under Biden's economy, faced with rising prices and shortages of feminine hygiene products and baby formula.

<li>Biden has overseen a shortage on feminine hygiene products which has led women to resort to reportedly "<a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/tampon-shortage-supply-chain-pandemic/">using the insides of mattresses, cut-up dirty sheets and t-shirts</a>" as a replacement to the products they need.

DEMOCRATS CAN'T EVEN DEFINE WHAT A WOMAN IS
- In April, Biden Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson was unable to define what a woman is, claiming she was "not a biologist."
- Biden's FY 2021 and 2022 budgets replaced the word "mothers" with "birthing people."
- When questioned about using "birthing people" in the budget, Biden's OMB Deputy Director Shalanda Young doubled down.
- Biden and Democrats' radical "Build Back Broke" agenda repeatedly refers to mothers as "pregnant," "lactating," and "postpartum individuals."
- Biden's CDC used the term "pregnant person" in their COVID-19 vaccine guidance.
- Democrats have given a voice to the far-left radicals in their party who push these ideas:
- Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) has referred to pregnant women as "birthing people."
- Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) referred to a woman as a "menstruating person."
- Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) referred to women as "menstruating people."
- In July, a pro-abortion witness invited by Democrats to testify in front of Congress claimed it is "dangerous" to say men can't get pregnant.
- In May, another pro-abortion witness invited to testify by congressional Democrats said "yes" men can become pregnant.
BIDEN AND DEMOCRATS ATTACK WOMEN'S SPACES
- Instead of standing for the rights of female students and athletes, Biden has caved to far-left, woke activists who want biological males to compete in women's sports.
- On his first day in office, Biden signed an executive order calling on schools across the country to allow students to compete in the sport of their "gender identity."
- Biden's Department of Agriculture announced it will take away meal funding for low-income and disadvantaged kids at schools if the school does not allow biological males to play in women's sports.
- On the 50th anniversary of Title IX, Biden's Department of Education "issued a new rule" which redefined the word "women."
- This is ruining sports for female athletes, enabling biological men to compete and earn college scholarships at their expense.
- Alanna Smith, a Connecticut high school track athlete forced to compete against biological males, said, "I felt like the race was over before I even began."
- Madisan DeBos, a track athlete at Southern Utah University, said it is "heartbreaking" that all of her hard work could be stripped away by "allowing biological males to compete."
- In January, the Biden administration changed federal prison policy to let prisoners be incarcerated with the gender they identify as, including letting biological males be housed with female inmates.
- Because of Biden's radical policies, two female inmates at an all-female prison were impregnated by a biological male who claimed to identify as a female.
DEMOCRATS WANT TO TAKE AWAY SUPPORT FOR VULNERABLE MOTHERS
- Democrats have called to shut down the approximately 3,000 life-affirming pregnancy centers that help a mother throughout her pregnancy and after.
