Senator Marshall Joins Newsmax to Discuss the Defining Male and Female Act
Washington – U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, M.D. (R-Kansas) joined National Report on Newsmax to discuss the Defining Male and Female Act, legislation he reintroduced today to codify the legal definitions of male, female, and sex to ensure they are based on biological reality rather than radical, left-wing ideology.
This bill would enshrine into law President Donald Trump’s Executive Order entitled “Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government,” which clarifies that sex is determined at conception and is dependent on the size of reproductive cells and ensures the federal government uses this sex dichotomy.

Highlights from Senator Marshall’s interview include:
On the Defining Male and Female Act:
“I can’t believe it’s necessary. But as you all know, I was an obstetrician for 30 years of my life. I delivered a baby almost every day. I delivered the baby, and I would say a prayer until it made its first cry, and then as the baby started crying, I would hand the baby to the new mom and the new dad and say, it’s a boy, it’s a girl. I never said, well, we’re not sure what this is. We’re going to do a little gender affirmation later and we’re going to assess this baby in three years. And I’d fill out the birth certificate. I would check male or female.
“So, what this bill does, and I’m embarrassed that we have to do this, is say, look, if this child, if this baby, if this future young man, makes sperm, then he’s a male. He’s a dude. And if it’s a person that makes oocytes, makes eggs, then guess what? It’s a girl.”
On President Trump’s executive order recognizing only two sexes:
“[President Trump] [issued] an executive order on day number one to protect the rights, the safety and dignity of women and this, this bill would codify that, that boys are boys and girls are girls. Let’s keep boys out of girls’ sports. Let’s keep boys out of the girls’ locker room.
“If you have a passport, you need to put on your biological sex, not your gender identity. If you’re in a public place, like a prison, a jail, some type of housing situation, public housing, the boys go on the boys’ side, and the girls go on the girls’ side… We just need a little more common sense. But this bill would codify exactly what President Trump did in his executive order.”
