WATCH: Dems go silent, pull Women's Month resolution after GOP asks for simple definition
Fox News ^ | Mar 26, 2026 | Charles Creitz

Pennsylvania House Democrats withdrew consideration of a resolution honoring March as "National Women’s Month" after a Republican lawmaker filed an amendment to include the physiological definition of "woman" in the text.

What was expected to be a quick, symbolic vote instead turned into a brief but telling floor moment, with Republicans forcing the question into the open and Democrats opting to shelve the resolution rather than define "woman" in legislation — leading to an eruption of laughter on the House floor......

"Will the House agree to the resolution?" McClinton asked the 102-100 Democrat-majority chamber.

The clerk indicated that state Rep. Aaron Bernstine, R-Ellwood City, had an amendment to offer, and McClinton recognized him to introduce it.

"Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, this amendment is very straightforward and clear," Bernstine announced.

"It defines what a woman actually is — because we do know what that is. Thank you," he said.

Audio in the House chamber briefly paused as movement could be seen on the leadership’s dais.

"The resolution is temporarily over," McClinton announced after several seconds, sparking loud laughter from the chamber.

McClinton soon turned to the clerk to read the next piece of legislation, "The Fairness Act" from DNC Vice Chair Malcolm Kenyatta, a state representative from North Philadelphia, and moved on with the day’s schedule.

The exchange echoed a viral moment from Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearing, when Sen. Marsha Blackburn pressed her to define "what is a woman," a question that became a flashpoint in broader debates over gender and policy.

In an interview Wednesday, Bernstine defended his amendment as a common sense measure, saying that defining a woman as having XX chromosomes shouldn’t be controversial.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

It is amazing how the Dems have turned the world upside down where common sense isn't.

What’s a “McClinton” supposed to be, the typical Clinton Crime Family admirer? She’s a Pennsylvania House Egg McClinton and proud of it!

“Let’s set aside a month so that we can celebrate the ... you know.”
“What? What are we celebrating?”
“Ummmmmmm. You know ... the ... the thing.”
“What thing are we talking about?”
“Oh, forget it. You just won’t listen.”

Only fools say it’s controversial. They have a fundamental problem with the Creator. Pride was the first sin when Lucifer rebelled against God.

Republicans are too busy sitting on the couch munching popcorn, waiting for Trump to fix everything.

And just south of Pennsylvania, the Maryland General Asylum has put aside topics such as out of control crime, corruption, taxes, affordability, a newly non-existent bridge and a bunch of other topics to have a hearty debate on requiring appropriately sized tampons in men’s bathrooms.

Democrats are morons.

As every young boy knows girls have cooties.

After Obergefell, “right to dignity” is the rule. When Title IX has publicly denounced men and taken away their sports, their activities, their schools, and everything’s feminised, there comes a serious consequence.

Men are claiming to be women because they’ve made it impossible to be a man. At the local church here, all vocalists on the “praise team” are female. 25 years ago, the adult choir was replaced by girls who danced to pop tunes. They followed what Big Entertainment pushed. And what’s the consequence? Female oriented churches.

Everything’s oriented to women in our culture, and when that happens, men are relegated where they claim to be female because there is no choice left.

I'm just looking forward to my next opportunity to vote. I'm not taking it to the streets. If I've got something to say about it, I'll say it to the TV!

The Communist Party USA!!! cannot afford to define a woman for fear of losing a big part of their trans base. Between the illegals their AWFLs and the trans, they cannot afford to lose any as the rest of America is slowly waking up to who and what they really are.

“Women” and “month” do not always evoke fond memories in me.

Agreed. Both Republicans and the MAGA faction of Republicans see themselves as spectators to cheer and boo and not as players to get involved.

If we lose in Nov 2026 it will be due to low turnout of our voters because we are spectators cheering and booing.
