GOP Rep. Randy Forbes: Make All Federal Docs Say “Mother” And “Father”

GOP Rep. Randy Forbes (VA) has introduced legislation which would require all federal documents to use only the words “mother” and “father” when describing parents. Forbes’ bill is meant to directly counter a recent compromise by Clinton’s State Department, which last month added the words “Parent 1” and “Parent 2” to passport applications. When we last heard from Forbes, he had introduced a House resolution calling for the words “In God We Trust” to be added to every public building, including courtrooms, schools, and government offices.
