Sarah Huckabee Sanders Allows Sanity to Prevail in Arkansas With Latest Executive Order

When Sarah Huckabee Sanders was sworn in as Arkansas' governor this January, she wasted no time implementing conservative policies.

Her first day on the job proved to be a busy one, as she signed a number of executive orders that took aim at everything from ending the use of the term "Latinx" in the state government to reining in any CRT and other indoctrination material used in the state's schools to protecting Arkansas' information and communications technology from influence by adversarial foreign nations, and more. 

Nine months later, she's continuing such efforts. As Spencer reported last week, Huckabee Sanders announced a Chinese company's subsidiary must divest itself of agricultural land in the state thanks to a law she signed earlier this year

But the governor is not just defending the state from foreign threats. She's also ridding it of woke nonsense.  

As seen with her ban on "Latinx," she has no tolerance for "culturally insensitive words" or, apparently, "language that ignores, undermines, and erases women." 

To that end, she signed an executive order eliminating "woke, anti-women words from state government."

"Women are women," the executive order states. "An XX chromosome is an XX chromosome. The science is clear and real."

Only women can give birth, the executive order continues, pointing out that "government should celebrate gender distinctions between men and women—not erase them."

All state offices, departments, boards, and commissions are prohibited from using exclusionary, sexist language in official state government business, effective immediately.

(2) In official government documents, the following exclusionary and sexist terms shall be replaced with accurate, female-affirming alternatives:

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.”

"Today, we're taking a stand against woke nonsense," Sanders said during the signing ceremony. "What frankly started as a fad among a few grad students has seeped down into corporations, the healthcare industry, and increasingly, state government." 

The signing of the executive order should send a message, she said: "We've had enough."

"Enough trying to erase women and girls, enough denying our biological differences from men, and enough of the craziness that is taking over our country," the governor added.
