The Governor of Wisconsin, Democrat Tony Evers, is facing blowback for introducing a budget that recommends a host of woke changes to destroy the nuclear family and diminish women.
One proposed change would swap the word “mother” in favor of “inseminated person.’
Evers has also proposed changing the term “paternity” to “parentage” in some parts of state law.
But Evers did not stop there his efforts to wokify language.
His administration’s budget recommendations for 2025-2027 includes additional pandering to the woke crowd by changing the terms “wife” and “husband” to “spouse.”
Additionally, “father” would be changed to “parent,” and “mother” would become “parent who gave birth to the child.”
Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers is trying to change state law to replace the term “mother” with “inseminated person.”
He is attempting to sneak it into a thousand-page budget bill.

The Republican Governors Association (RGA) issued a statement in response to the language changes.
Evers’ “latest left-wing push” is “offensive to mothers,” RGA executive director Sara Craig said in a statement. “Being a mother is the greatest privilege I will have in my lifetime, and every mother I know feels the same. If Tony Evers can reduce motherhood to an ‘inseminated person’ then our society is lost.”
