[WashingtonTimes] - The Daughters of the American Revolution rejected a resolution on transgender membership.
- The resolution aimed to bar male-born candidates from joining the organization.
- Members voted 1,481 to 984 against the proposal at the 135th Continental Congress.
The Daughters of the American Revolution beat back a membership uprising over transgender membership, rejecting a resolution that would have barred male-born candidates from being admitted to the venerable women’s patriotic organization.
DAR members defeated the resolution, which would have clarified that applicants must be “born female” to be eligible for membership, at a Friday vote of the 135th Continental Congress at Memorial Continental Hall in the District.
Introduced by a cohort of members known as Daughters Advocating for Restoration, the proposal lost by a 1,481-984 vote of the assembly, according to Laura McDonald, a leader of the resistance group and treasurer of the DAR’s Martha Laird Chapter in Mount Pleasant, Texas.
An estimated five male-to-female transgender candidates have joined DAR chapters in recent years, spurring thousands of resignations and an internal battle over whether “daughters” include biological males who identify as women.
