OPINION:
Democrats are poised to launch the Equal Rights Amendment Caucus this week, with hopes to amend the Constitution to make clear gender discrimination is not OK.
It’s an interesting push for a political party that’s filled with members who can’t even define a woman versus a man, and who consistently argue that gender is as fluid as the rivers that flow.
And therein lies the problem with this caucus, and with the advocacy that this caucus will no doubt bring to the federal level. Since Democrats don’t believe in standards and boundaries of something as simple as God-ordained sexes, then the ultimate goal of this caucus is suspect.
It’s not so much about pushing into constitutional amendment a guarantee of equality between the two sexes as it is about laying the groundwork for nonstop advancement of special interests, special agendas and specially devised and especially devious designs.
Today’s created ERA Caucus is tomorrow’s go-to for transgender activists — for drag queen performers — for medical bureaucrats who want to surgically operate on a child’s sex organs. The clamor from Capitol Hill for the abnormal to become normalized will be nonstop.
“The Equal Rights Amendment Caucus will partner with advocates, activists, scholars, organizers and public figures to establish a constitutional right to gender equality, and raise awareness around the issue,” The Hill wrote.
This — in the age of LGBTQIA2S+ — Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and/or Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, Two-Spirit.
That — in the day of pangender, nonbinary, gender, gender neutral, genderqueer, third gender, no gender, or a combination of all.
This and that — in the day and age of a Democratic Party run amok with the notion that humans can change sex at will; that God, the Bible and traditional family are all outdated and intolerant of today’s modern senses; that abnormal is normal, insane is sane and evil is actually, if one will only squint hard enough and drink from the left’s endless cups of Kool-Aid — that evil is actually good.
“Exactly 100 years after the ERA was first introduced in Congress in 1923, the launch of this caucus serves to commemorate the centenary of the struggle for constitutional gender equality,” Reps. Cori Bush and Ayanna Pressley, the force behind the caucus creation, said in a press release.
If they were talking only two genders, the caucus wouldn’t be necessary because laws already exist to ensure equality between the sexes.
But they’re not.
They’re laying the groundwork to be a federal force for the pro-LGBTQ movement.
America’s tax dollars, at work.
Today’s ERA. Tomorrow’s criminalization of calling women, women and men, men.
