DAR Patriots defend women’s society from men posing as ladies.

Preserving the Historic Character of the Daughters of the American Revolution

Founded in 1890⁣ by ‍women, the Daughters of the⁤ American Revolution⁤ (DAR) has‌ been a symbol of service and community dedication. However, the ‌organization now faces a threat to its historic​ character from‌ transgender ideology.

During the annual convention at Memorial Continental Hall, the DAR⁤ introduced proposed bylaws amendments.⁢ While the focus was on increasing application fees, there was a subtle amendment to ⁤update nondiscrimination ⁤language. This change raised suspicions among members, who began to​ question if it ​meant allowing men who identify as women to join the DAR.

Concerns grew when it was revealed that some states ​allow individuals to change the sex on their birth‌ certificates.⁤ Members reported seeing a ‍male wearing the DAR insignia and‌ credentials⁤ at a recent event.⁤ It seemed that the national society had already crossed ​a significant threshold without ⁤the knowledge or ⁢approval of its membership.

At the business meeting, President General Pamela Wright‍ confirmed that the amendment would ‌allow males to ‌join if⁤ their birth ‍certificates certified them as female. ⁣She explained that the DAR needed⁤ to adopt a ⁤non-discrimination⁢ statement to protect its ‌tax-exempt, non-profit status.

Delegates ⁣expressed ‍opposition to the amendment, citing the importance of maintaining the DAR as a women’s society. However, the​ motion to end the discussion and​ pass the amendment was abruptly declared successful without a formal count.

News of the bylaw change spread among‍ chapter members, many of whom were unaware of the amendment. Concerns and opposition were voiced on a DAR-sponsored social‌ media site, but posts were removed, and members⁣ were‍ directed to contact their State Regent ⁣for⁢ clarification.

To clarify, the ​approved bylaws amendment does not change the policy⁣ on membership eligibility. It simply ​added additional non-discrimination language to ⁤mirror the requirements of federal law and protect⁣ our tax-exempt status. We ⁢continue to only accept⁢ those into membership who can prove ​lineal descent from someone with qualified Revolutionary‌ War service and who has ⁢a certified birth certificate indicating they are female. ‍If ‍you have further questions, you should reach ​out to your State Regent.

Despite the response from DAR administrators, members persisted in seeking answers and were accused of⁤ spreading misinformation. Many members feel betrayed by a society that was established by ⁣and for women, with a motto that emphasizes God, Home, and ‌Country.

Opponents ⁢of⁣ the ‍bylaws change argue that it ⁢contradicts their religious beliefs and scientific understanding of ‍biological sex. They⁣ reject the notion of gender fluidity⁣ and are determined to fight ‌for ‌the preservation of their women’s society.

While some members have already resigned in protest, others have⁢ decided to stay ⁢and work ‍towards‍ rescinding the amendment. ⁢They believe that their consolidated efforts will eventually lead ‍to a change in the national board’s⁣ decision.

The⁢ DAR members are descendants of Revolutionary War patriots, and they see themselves in a new battle for the soul of​ their society and their country. They remain committed to honoring their​ ancestors and protecting their First Amendment rights.

In the words of Revolutionary War Captain John Parker, “Don’t fire unless ‍fired‌ upon, but if they mean to have ‍a war, let it begin here.”
