Biden and Democrats’ War on Women
The attacks extend from the economy to motherhood to women’s sports and spaces to the very definition of the word “woman.”
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.
- A majority of women say inflation is the top issue of concern for their family.
- Biden has overseen a shortage on feminine hygiene products which has led women to resort to reportedly “using the insides of mattresses, cut-up dirty sheets and t-shirts” as a replacement to the products they need.
- Bidenflation has caused tampons to rise by over 10 percent and pads to increase by 9 percent.
- On top of a tampon shortage, Biden has overseen a baby formula shortage with the in stock rate dropping “to the lowest level so far this year” despite the Biden administration knowing about the crisis since last year.
- Katie Thompson, a mother of two: “I don’t know how I’m going to feed my child … now going to the shelves and there’s nothing there … this is scary.”
- Ashleigh, a Jacksonville mother whose son needs a specific formula: “I cannot get food for my child. I cannot feed my son.”
- Democrats have resorted to blaming worried mothers “buying a lot” for the formula shortage.
- It’s not just infants that mothers across the country are struggling to feed – moms are also having trouble feeding their families amid 40-year high inflation.
- In North Carolina, a mother who resorted to a local food pantry said, “it’s devastating. Right now times [are] so hard to feed my kids."
- In Georgia, a mother and father are now confronted with the choice "don’t let the kids have seconds or forgo a meal themselves.”
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.
- Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said “we need to put a stop” to crisis pregnancy centers “right now” and called for the centers to be “shut down… all around the country.”
- Sen.Bob Mendez (D-NJ), Warren, and other prominent Democrats introduced legislation to “crack down” on crisis pregnancy centers that help women keep their babies.
- Gov. Gretchen Witmer (D-MI) vetoed millions of dollars from going to crisis pregnancy centers and smeared these non-profit organizations as “fake health centers.”
- Pro-abortion radicals have targeted and attacked pregnancy centers across the country as Democrats refuse to denounce the violence.
- In California, a man with a machete attempted to attack a pregnancy center but was stopped before he could cause harm.
- In Colorado, a pregnancy center was set on fire.
- In Virginia, pro-abortion radicals smashed the windows of a pro-life center and graffitied “you ain’t safe.”
- In Tennessee, a pregnancy center was attacked with Molotov cocktails.
