Republicans Introduce Bill to Define What a Woman Is
'Women’s Bill of Rights' provides additional legal protections to women

Republican lawmakers introduced a new bill to Congress that seeks to define what a woman is.
GOP Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-AZ) is sponsoring a “Women’s Bill of Rights” to provide additional legal protections to women under federal law.
The bill notes that establishing a standard for identifying people on the basis of their sex is crucial to societal stability.
"There are important reasons to distinguish between the sexes with respect to athletics, prisons, domestic violence shelters, restrooms, and other areas, particularly where biology, safety, and privacy are implicated," H. Res.1136 states.
"Males and females possess unique and immutable biological difference that manifest prior to birth and increase as they age and experience puberty," the proposed legislation states.
“Biological differences between the sexes can expose females to more harm than males from specific forms of violence, including sexual violence.”

It even defies current left-wing orthodoxy by declaring that only women are able to get pregnant, RedState reported.
The bill states “biological difference between the sexes mean that only females may get pregnant, give birth, and breastfeed children.”
The bill also indicates that motherhood and fatherhood are reserved for women and men respectively.
The bill states “for purposes of Federal law, the word ‘mother’ means a parent of the female sex and ‘father’ is defined as a parent of the male sex.”
Republican Reps. Jim Banks of Indiana, Mary Miller of Illinois, Diana Harshbarger of Tennessee, Claudia Tenney of New York, Vicky Hartzler of Missouri, Doug Lambron of Kansas, Ronny Jackson of Texas, Doug LaMalfa, Victoria Spartz of Indiana, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, and Barry Moore of Alabama submitted the bill alongside Lesko.

Banks, who also serves as the chairman of the Republican Study Committee, argued that this legislation is critical in order to protect the rights of women from leftist attacks.
"The modern Democrat party has put the Left’s woke agenda before the rights of women," he said.
"These days, Democrats refuse to even admit women exist or recognize them as unique beings, with unique abilities. While radical liberals strip away the progress and protections that generations of women fought to achieve.
"Republicans must fight back and acknowledge these basic biological truths.
"As the father of three daughters, I’m proud to co-lead this resolution reaffirming the legal protections afforded to them under federal law.”
According to a press release from the Republican Study Committee, H. Res. 1136 is also supported by several outside women’s interest organizations such as the Independent Women’s Law Center, Concerned Women for America LAC, Women’s Liberation Front, and the Eagle Forum.
