Many State and National Officers continue to insist that the Bylaw Amendment adopted at the 132nd Continental Congress did not allow for men to be eligible members. The amendment that was adopted struck the words

They have gone as far as threatening to remove any member who speaks publicly about their opinions and beliefs from offices and committees.
We are our own worst enemies.
That crap should have been stopped in its tracks.
President Trump pulled the rug out from under the DAR board members who are advocating for trannies with this EO:
