The Democrat war on women continues. This time, a Democrat senator has removed 22 references to women in a bill about insurance for pregnant moms.
Senator Sherrod Brown, an Ohio Democrat, took out every reference to women from a bill relating to insurance enrollment periods for pregnant women.
As Fox News reports, that’s a marked change from when he first introduce the measure almost a decade ago.
In 2015, the Ohio Democrat introduced the first iteration of the Healthy Maternity and Obstetric Medicine Act. It featured the word “women” 22 times, “maternity” 19 times and “woman” twice.
By last year, he had scrubbed it of references to women before the bill’s re-introduction. The 2023 version does not make any mention of “women” or “woman.” It also reduced references to “maternity” to only four.
Introduced several times, including in 2015, 2019, 2021 and 2023, the bill once featured a section titled, “Findings and Purpose.” Within that section, “women” were referenced 19 times in 2015 and 20 times in 2019.

According to the section, “Pregnancy is a significant life event for millions of women in the United States each year.”
The lengthy section was then inexplicably removed from both the 2021 and 2023 versions of the measure. The later iterations of the bill solely rely on the descriptors “pregnant person” and “pregnant individual” rather than “woman.”
Ohio Right to Life Executive Board Member Carrie Snyder complained about brown’s actions to LifeNews.
She said, “Senator Brown’s action to remove ‘women’ and replace it with ‘persons’ is a slap in the face to all mothers and delegitimizes their God-given abilities that separates man from woman.”
“Sherrod Brown claims to fight for ‘women’s rights,’ and yet erases biological women from a bill about healthcare during pregnancy. If Brown cared about women, he would not undermine our unique childbearing abilities as our United States Senator.”
Snyder is a loving and devoted mother to six children. She knows the beauty and bravery of carrying a child.
