Union Fights Back Against Biden’s New “Pronoun Policy” For Federal Workers
Americans are pushing back against the Biden administration’s woke agenda.
On March 1st, Social Security Administration Commissioner Kilolo Kijakazi announced a new “Pronoun Policy” for federal workers.
The policy allows transgender employees to use the bathroom of their choice and says that employees could face disciplinary action if they continually misuse the pronouns of a colleague.
The policy defines the terms agender, bigender, cisgender, gender diverse, genderfluid, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, nonbinary, and two-spirit.
The announcement also said that employees “will receive notice of a mandatory training to help you prepare for full implementation of the policy, which will happen on March 31, 2023.”
On March 1, SSA Acting Commissioner Kilolo Kijakazi announced the policy to employees with the subject “Building an Equitable and Inclusive Culture: Gender Identity.”
“Soon, you will receive notice of a mandatory training to help you prepare for full implementation of the policy, which will happen on March 31, 2023. Available starting March 2, this training will increase your knowledge of using pronouns and gender-neutral language and supporting employees and colleagues in the workplace,” the email said.

It says transgender employees may use the bathroom of their choice, and that “continued intentional misuse of an employee’s name or pronoun could… lead to disciplinary action.”
“At meetings, employees, managers, and supervisors can introduce themselves with the pronouns they use, which may prompt others at the meeting to share the pronouns they use, e.g., ‘Hello, my name is Michael. My pronouns are he/him.’ Additionally, employees, managers, and supervisors should consider including their proper names, pronunciations of their names, and pronouns in their email signatures, e.g., Brianne (Bree-anne) Doe (they/theirs),” it adds.
One union is fighting back.
American Federation of Government Employees Local 2505 represents 600 employees.
They filed a grievance on Friday saying, “All of the changes are violations of … existing terms and conditions of employment.”

“All of the changes are violations of … existing terms and conditions of employment,” the grievance reads.
