Whoops! Nancy Pelosi ‘broke several House rules on gendered language’ in just a few seconds

Posted at 2:38 pm on January 13, 2021 by Doug P.

The 117th Congress kicked off earlier this month with Rep. Nancy Pelosi making it clear there would be changes in the House rules:

    The newly reelected House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Rules Committee Chairman James P. McGovern introduced a new code of conduct ahead of the 117th Congress that includes “sweeping” reforms and promotes diversity and inclusivity.
    […]
    In addition to permanently establishing an Office of Diversity and Inclusion and other diversity measures, the proposed package would “honor all gender identities by changing pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be gender neutral.” Previously, Congress operated under a binary rule that “words importing one gender include the other as well.”

What was it, $5,000 she was going to fine anyone in the house for not using gender neutral pronouns?  She should be leader enough to fine herself which would be an enormous challenge for her.  If she spends that kind of money for violating her own rules, she may not be able to buy $14 a pint ice cream.
