FIRST ON FOX \u2014 <\/strong>A House Republican is introducing legislation<\/a> that would require the Daughters of the American Revolution to limit membership to biological women, saying the historic organization’s congressional charter should reflect its original mission after the group adopted a policy interpreted as allowing transgender applicants.<\/p>\n

Rep. Ben Cline, R-Va., introduced the Daughters of the American Revolution Membership Integrity Act on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“The DAR has a longstanding tradition of celebrating and empowering women who represent the exceptional heritage of the birth of our Nation,” Cline said in a statement provided exclusively to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“However, as we celebrate America\u2019s 250th birthday<\/a>, the organization has now abandoned the very principles on which it was founded,” Cline added. “Rather than honoring and preserving a lineage-based organization for women, it has embraced radical gender ideology<\/a> at the expense of the women it was created to serve.”<\/p>\n

“The Daughters of the American Revolution Membership Integrity Act is common-sense legislation that requires the Congressionally-charted DAR to return to serving the true daughters of the American Revolution,” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The bill would impose a requirement<\/a> to the federal charter that limits membership to only individuals who are biological females and otherwise keeps the genealogical and membership qualifications established by the corporation.<\/p>\n

Cline’s bill notes that the term “female” means someone “who naturally has, had, will have, or would have but for a congenital anomaly or intentional or unintentional disruption, the reproductive system that produces, transports, and utilizes the large gamete (ova) for fertilization.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Last year<\/a>, the DAR denied a motion by local members to restrict biological males who identify<\/a> as transgender from joining the organization.<\/p>\n

The group, founded in 1890, is made up of a membership of women who are direct descendants to American Revolutionary War patriots. It voted 1,481 to 984 on June 26<\/a> against a measure to keep membership for those “born female,” the New York Post reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Cline\u2019s office said that his legislation has gained support from<\/a> Concerned Women for America, American Principles Project, Independent Women Forum, and the Heritage Foundation.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital<\/a> reached out to the DAR for comment but did not immediately receive a response.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
