The Alliance Defending Freedom is leading the charge among conservative forces in Virginia, calling on Republican lawmakers to oppose a resolution introduced by Democrats that seeks to redefine 'gender' within the state constitution. Seen by many as an imposition of liberal gender ideologies onto legal frameworks, critics argue this move compromises the integrity of the constitution and undermines traditional values. Virginia Republicans are being urged to protect the state's foundational principles from what they view as radical and unnecessary changes, championing the preservation of societal norms and the welfare of future generations.
