[California State Senator and Senate Judiciary Committee chair Hannah-Beth Jackson] said that new committee rules recognize California’s designation of “non-binary” as a gender. The words “he and she” will now become “what my grammar teacher would have had a heart attack over,” the senator said. The committee will use the word “they” instead, because it is gender-neutral, Jackson said.
“Basically, that’s the primary reforms and revisions to the committee rules,” she said.
Jackson also said that as the chair, she will now be known as “they,” to keep in line with “the spirit of gender neutrality for the rules of this committee.”
“So, the world is a different place. My grammar teacher’s long gone and we won’t be hearing from her,” Jackson said.
Wait.
Back up.
What was that?
She then corrected her use of the word “her.”
Of course she did.
They got their 40 year plan from a Fellini movie
Curious.
Will the CA state legislature force this rule on all state operations?

Redickilous!
Just remember Theodore Dalrymple’s words in this regard:
Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

Credit given to a new low record on the stupidity scale. Even liberal grammarians permit the gender-specific pronouns when the sex of the referent is known, so “HER” in the case of the female grammar teacher is entirely correct even in PC-speak. They goes too far in introducing that bill.
Also, according to the quote, “he AND she” will be replaced by “they” and that, also, is entirely correct in the old grammar. Face it, without a mutual and clear understanding of what words mean, we cannot communicate our ideas. How fortunate this idiot has none worthy of being understood.
If you don’t allow sex specific pronouns, how do you do affirmative action quotas by sex? Seems that one liberal mandate is conflicting with a few others, to put it mildly.
