Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) on Thursday signed an executive order banning woke and anti-women words from state documents. The culture war salvo got a thumbs-down from the ACLU and LGBTQ+ advocates.
Sanders, a Republican who served as White House press secretary under Donald Trump , aimed her wrath at inclusionary language, specifically around gender and childbirth.
Here are the forbidden terms and their now-mandatory replacements, per the order.
a. Rather than pregnant people or pregnant person, use pregnant women or pregnant mom.
b. Rather than chestfeeding, use breastfeeding.
c. Rather than body fed or person fed, use breast fed.
d. Rather than human milk, use breast milk.
e. Rather than birthing person, use birth mom.
f. Rather than laboring person, use birth mom.
g. Rather than menstruating person or menstruating people, use woman or women.
h. Rather than birth-giver, use woman.
i. Rather than womxn or womyn, use woman.
Enough trying to erase women and girls, the governor said at a press conference, which can be viewed below. Enough denying our biolgical differences from men. And enough of the craziness that is taking over our country.
Today, were taking a stand against woke nonsense, she declared.
Even Arkansas Surgeon General Dr. Kay Chandler chimed in. Our governor wont let political correctness get in the way of science, Chandler said.
