Joe Biden has made no bones about his woke agenda. The “moderate” Democrat has done whatever the far left has told him to do. From the environment to immigration, Biden is prioritizing policies that make Bernie Sanders look like Ronald Reagan.
Despite facing a devastating November election, his administration continues to push extreme, progressive policies.
The latest appears to be an attempt to impose radical gender ideology onto businesses. Biden’s White House is trying to reinterpret sexual harassment to include using the wrong pronouns for a transgender employee. Now, eighteen states are fighting back.
From Daily Wire:
On Monday, Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti led a coalition of 18 states in filing a lawsuit against the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) after it released new sexual harassment guidance extending Title VII’s protections against sex-based discrimination to cover gender identity…“…This end-run around our constitutional institutions misuses federal power to eliminate women’s private spaces and punish the use of biologically-accurate pronouns, all at the expense of Tennessee employers.”
It seems Biden is trying to make it a crime for a company to “misgender” a trans worker. The new rules—not approved by Congress—make a business liable to legal action if an employer uses the “wrong” pronoun. If a company does not allow a transgender to use the bathroom of their choice, it can also face punishment.
This appears to be an attempt by Biden to force woke gender ideology onto Americans, through the workplace. While the president does not have the power to control what people say—thanks to the First Amendment—it appears he is trying to use sexual harassment laws as a loophole.
States led by Tennessee AG Jonathan Skrmetti have sued the federal government over this new rule. They are accusing Biden of giving power granted to elected representatives to “unaccountable commissioners.”
This battle over Biden’s attempt to impose gender ideology onto Americans has been raging since his first year in office. The process is moving gradually, but Americans are not letting Joe push his woke views down their throats.
Key Takeaways:
- Eighteen states are suing Biden over an attempt to push gender ideology.
- Biden rewrote sexual harassment rules to include “misgendering” a transgender employee.
- The new rules also require companies to allow transgenders to use the bathroom of their choice.
