The Daughters of the American Revolution officially rejected a proposed ban on transgender women from joining the organization on June 26.
The long-awaited vote came after years of pressure within the DAR — a nonprofit historical preservation and education society created in 1890, composed of women with direct ancestry to soldiers in the American Revolutionary War — to exclude trans women from the organization’s definition of “woman,” which would effectively ban them from its ranks.
In 2023, the DAR officially amended their guidelines to include language that protects trans members against discrimination in the application process, per The Washingtonian.
“Some have asked if this means a transgender woman can join DAR or if this means that DAR chapters have previously welcomed transgender women,” Pamela Rouse Wright, President of the DAR, wrote in a newsletter on the bylaws. “The answer to both questions is, yes.”

No, insanity.
Same thing.
“where members voted 1,481-984 against defining woman as “born female,” allowing trans members of the DAR to remain.”
The vote wasn’t even close.
There goes the Quilting Bees.
Somehow all these institutions get hijacked by leftists. They become targets.
WASPS have really betrayed the country they founded.
My wife is a member and we are going to bring that to an end. Goodbye to wokeness.
Yep.
Many of us are considering resigning over this. It started in a chapter in Texas where a man with a doctored birth certificate or whatever it was that HE had, applied to join. I heard that there are a total of five men posing as women in DAR.
The left, gays and trans are determined to destroy every single thing in America.
They are now the daughters of the leftist sludgepile.
The DAR is headquartered in DC. - the same liberal elite hellhole that’s trashed our country for decades. Thank God Trump is attempting to clean it up.
In fact, there’s a revolution going on within the group of ladies who are deeply unhappy about the vote, which basically allows men into the DAR. This isn’t the last word on this issue by a long shot.
Now I am glad my daughter declined to apply for membership when I told her she was eligible.
How can you trust any organization that does not know that boys are not girls?
“The left, gays and trans are determined to destroy every single thing in America.”
Excellent observation. Of course the Boy Scouts of American was destroyed by that same trio of misfits.
I don’t think any person ‘runs’ it; but they have a President General who serves a three year term:

At that rate, why not welcome the British to join?
But note that the info isn’t easily available to find on their website.
The DAR accepts donations...

But is not transparent with regard to who’s running it.
Nuff said to my mind.
The DAR has been in DC since long before the liberals took it over. They built Constitution Hall in 1929.
