The rules also got a big boost from progressive Queens/Bronx Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who said she was “grateful for@RepMcGovern’s leadership” during the process.

One Capitol Hill insider told The Post the idea for nixing gender from the new rules package likely originated in the House’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion. The same rules also enshrined the office as a permanent new addition to the Capitol.

The agency was created by Democrats in one of their first acts at the start of the previous Congress.

“This office is charged with submitting to Congress a diversity plan to direct and guide House employing offices to recruit, hire, train, develop, advance, promote, and retain a diverse workforce,” reads its official about page.

Hmm, will we be seeing women staffers "properly" replaced with TW? No precedent for that, is there?

See the reference in my post above to AOC's July 2020 much-publicized remarks on the House floor in which she repeatedly used used the words daughter, wife, father and mother. If AOC had used the terms child, spouse and parent instead, her takedown of Congress member Ted Yoho would have been far less dramatic, biting and effective. And her remarks would have come off as far less attention-grabbing, headline-generating and praiseworthy too.

I did see. Thank you for presenting so well what I could not at the time. This very thing ran through my mind when I read AOC was in full support of these rules.
