Rubio Slams Senate Dems for Voting Against Amendment Regarding Pregnancy and Biological Females

All 50 Senate Democrats and Independents voted against an amendment that would have declined pregnancy as a condition unique to biological females.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) spoke out against his fellow members of the Senate when he called them out for voting against amendments to the Inflation Reduction Act that would have helped lower energy prices, increased funding for police, and clarified that only women can be pregnant, according to the senator’s website.

The definitions would have been clarified for the purpose of federally supported infant-related program resources, according to Rubio’s comments before the Senate.

During the course of his argument, the Florida senator cited 5,500 years of recorded human history saying from the Senate floor, “The only people capable of being pregnant are biological females, and therefore, I think federal pregnancy programs should be limited to biological females, and that’s what this would do.”

The senator went on to say “The only thing I’m trying to do is make sure that federal law is clear, since every pregnancy that’s ever existed has been in a biological female, and that our federal laws reflect that pregnancy programs are available to the only people who are capable of getting pregnant: biological females.”

“Federal funding should reflect reality: only women can get pregnant. Unfortunately, it looks like my Democrat colleagues don’t trust ‘the science’ after all,” Rubio has also said about the amendment according to his press release.

Rubio addressed a number of other issues during his remarks to the Senate, saying that middle-class Americans are concerned about a “spirit of widespread rampant criminality…that’s what people are worried about, they’re worried about being the victim of a crime because some animals are running loose terrorizing people and prosecutors won’t do anything about it.”

“There isn’t a single thing in this bill that helps working people lower the price of groceries, or the price of gasoline, or the price of housing, or the price of clothes,” Rubio said of the Democratic spending bill.

The lawmaker went on to assert that, “There isn’t a single thing in this bill that is going to keep criminals in jail. There isn’t a single thing in this bill that is going to secure our border. And those happen to be the things working people in this country care about.”
