America’s 2 Answers to ‘The Woman Question’
Republican and Democrat family ecosystems are increasingly different from one another, especially on how they balance work and family.
A survey of how family life has become a partisan faultline is useful in today’s hyper-charged environment, not least to inform rhetoric and politics. Consider this a one-stop shop for the latest surveys on “The Woman Question.”
Republicans marry earlier than Democrats. Total fertility rates among Republicans are markedly higher than they are among Democrats, as is expected fertility. Ditto for marriage rates. Gaps among the young are even more pronounced. Around 75% of liberal women under 35 were childless in 2024, compared with around 40% of conservative women, according to research based the General Social Survey. In 2010, the difference was only 5%.
Democrat moms balance work and family differently than Republican moms. Nearly three-fourths of self-identified liberal women with young children work full time, compared to only about a third of conservative women. Only 16% of liberal women with young children stay at home and just 10% have side hustles. In contrast, 36% of conservative women with young children stay home and 20% work part time.
These actions reveal preferences. Almost half of self-identified liberal women (46%) would rather work full time even when young kids are young, while only about half as many similarly situated conservative women (28%) prefer full-time work.
Republican women attend church more frequently and profess belief in God at higher rates than Democrat women, especially among those born after 1980.
Liberal women are lonelier and less happy than conservative women. Married liberal women are unhappier than conservative married women too. Self-identified liberal women take antidepressants at much higher rates, claim to have mental health conditions at much higher rates, are politically active in much higher rates, and jettison friendships over politics at much higher rates than conservative women.
Democrat women are more likely to pursue independence and self-actualization, while most Republican women see the self and their family as more interconnected. Republican women are, according to one academic study, even more attractive than Democrat women.
These differences affect electoral politics. Single women are now a reliable voting bloc for Democrats, while married women have moved modestly but consistently toward Republicans. In the most recent election, more than two-thirds of single women voted against Donald Trump, while Trump carried roughly 60% of married men, the majority of married women, and nearly half of single men. These numbers have been pretty consistent since 2012.
The cohort of single women on the left stands apart as the most ideologically extreme segment of the electorate, holding far-left views on a host of social issues, including immigration, DEI policies, affirmative action, abortion, global warming, and gender ideology. Republican women (both single and married), by contrast, are more mainstream, though not monolithically so.
The vast majority of Republicans do not believe in preferential hiring and promotions for women (70% of Republican men and 53% of Republican women), while only 32% of Democrat men and 20% of Democrat women think companies should not engaged in such practices.
Democrats are more likely to run women for office; Republicans politically platform fewer women. Sixteen of 47 Democrat senators are women (34%), while 10 of 53 Republican senators are women (19%). Ninety-four of the 215 Democrat House members are women (44%), while only 31 of the 220 Republicans are (14%).
Similar gaps exist at the state level, according to my calculations. America currently has 7,386 state legislators. 4,981 are men and 2,405 are women. 868 Republican legislators are women (21%), while Democrats are closely divided with 1,602 women (49.5%) and 1,631 men.
Political changes reflect different expectations from marriage and marital roles. Republican women worry about the feminization of men and are more likely to hope their husbands serve as loving providers, while Democrat women prefer allies and mere friendship in marriage.
According to a Manhattan Institute survey, two-thirds of Republicans think society is “too feminine” and hope for more masculine thinking (78% of Republican men and 58% of Republican women), while only one-third of all Democrats share the same view. Almost 40% of conservative women favor a return to “traditional gender roles,” while fewer than 5% of liberal women do. In 2024, 68% of Democrats thought “men have it easier in the US today,” up from 49 % in 2017, while only 32% of Republicans in 2024 agreed.
The Democrat and Republican sexual ecosystems are not entirely distinct, of course. Some Democrats still marry young, have children early, and stay at home. Likewise, some Republican women desire to pursue full-time work like their Democrat sisters but still vote Republican.
For decades, however, the overall direction had seemed clear: Republican women drifted more slowly toward the Democrat vision of womanhood. Now increasingly Republican women, especially younger women, have either stayed put or moved in a somewhat more traditional direction while Democrat women are becoming significantly more liberal in actions and in thought.
Precisely what this growing divide means for politics and, indeed, American culture should occupy scholars, political parties, and all concerned citizens. It will affect political tactics, public policy, and public rhetoric.

Editor Daily Rundown: Trump Keeps Pressure On Senate To Pass ‘SAVE America Act’
Judicial Watch Victory: Court Rejects D.C. Bid to Hide January 6 Bodycam Footage
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that a Washington, D.C. court ruled that Washington D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) cannot broadly blur and censor body-worn camera (BWC) footage from January 6, 2021. The MPD had previously claimed that such redactions were necessary to protect personal privacy and asserted that complying with the request would cost more than $1.5 million due to the volume of footage, which reportedly exceeds one thousand hours.
The ruling follows a January 8, 2026, hearing before Judge Veronica Sanchez in Judicial Watch’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit for all bodycam footage recorded by Metropolitan Police officers who responded to the U.S. Capitol on January 6 (Judicial Watch v. District of Columbia (No. 2024-CAB-003453)).
In its order, the court rejected the District’s argument that it could justify redacting under D.C. FOIA exemptions the faces and voices of all non-law enforcement individuals captured in the footage.
The court found that while individuals appearing in the footage may have a limited privacy interest, that interest is minimal and does not outweigh the strong public interest in disclosure. The court emphasized that the events of January 6 occurred largely in public settings, were widely recorded, and remain a matter of significant national concern.
Concerning the individuals’ privacy interests, the court explained that the individuals present could not reasonably expect that their appearances would remain private:
The circumstances leading up to the events at the U.S. Capitol Complex included a large, public, televised event on the National Mall. Individuals were gathered in a public arena. The crowd then marched to the U.S. Capitol Complex where members of congress were partaking in the certification of the Presidential election results live on television.
***
The individuals on the [body-worn cameras] could not “reasonably expect that their appearances on the [BWC] would remain private.” … A person’s privacy interest is greater in the release of images and video footage that were taken without their “knowing consent.” … Even though the individuals recorded on the subject BWCs may not have consented to their images being recorded, they certainly had reason to believe that the many law enforcement officers, as well as the surveillance cameras at the government owned property, were recording them. Additionally, during the events of January 6, simultaneous media images from both inside the U.S. Capitol and around the U.S. Capitol Complex were being broadcast, streamed, and uploaded. While the individuals may have not all “knowingly consented” to the images being recorded, they had reason to know they were.
Concerning the public interest, the court stated:
The events of January 6, 2021, have been the topic of much debate, discussion, and scrutiny in the public consciousness by not just the residents of the District of Columbia but also the nation. BWC footage of the events at the Capitol on January 6 could “contribute significantly” to the public’s understanding of the events on that day and the MPD’s actions.
The court concluded, “In balancing the privacy interests which are little more than de minimis with the public interest, the public interest outweighs the privacy interests. … [T]he faces and voices of individuals captured by MPD’s BWCs on January 6, 2021, are not exempt from disclosure.”
“This a major victory for transparency and the rule of law,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “As the court found, the American people have a right to see this secret D.C. police January 6 footage. Judicial Watch will now push for the immediate release of the videos.”
Judicial Watch has extensively investigated the events of January 6.
In April 2026, Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to obtain records related to possible improper targeting of January 6, 2021, Capitol protesters, their supporters, and related nonprofits
In August 2025, Judicial Watch announced that the U.S. Air Force would finally provide full military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt, the Air Force veteran who was shot and killed inside the U.S. Capitol by then-Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd on January 6, 2021. Babbitt was the only official January 6 homicide victim. The Biden administration had previously denied Babbitt and her family these honors in retaliation for being at the U.S. Capitol that day. This decision came on the heels of a massive, nearly $5 million Trump administration settlement to her family for wrongful death and other claims against the U.S. Government.
In July 2025, Judicial Watch sued the U.S. Department of Justice for records on accelerated January 6 prosecutions after Donald Trump was elected president in November 2024. The Biden administration, anticipating President-elect Donald Trump’s promise to issue pardons for January 6, 2021, defendants, is believed to have accelerated prosecutions in the final months of Biden’s term.
In March 2024, Judicial Watch received Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) records from the Department of Justice in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit that show the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) deployed personnel to Washington, DC, on January 6, 2021.
October 2023, Judicial Watch received the declaration of James W. Joyce, senior counsel in the Office of the General Counsel for the Capitol Police, in which he describes emails among senior officials of the United States Capitol Police (USCP) in January 2021 that show warnings of possible January 6 protests that could lead to serious disruptions at the U.S. Capitol.

Trump Signs Bill to Fund DHS
President Donald Trump on Thursday signed a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security, ending a record 76-day shutdown.
Agencies within the department that do not deal with immigration enforcement are now funded, including the Coast Guard, Transportation Security Administration, Secret Service, Federal Emergency Management Agency, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
Congress has until June 1 to meet Trump’s deadline to pass a separate bill funding Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection through the process of reconciliation. Reconciliation packages can pass the Senate with a simple majority vote, meaning Republicans won’t need Democrat votes to fund immigration enforcement.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement was already funded through 2029 due to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
“DHS is back open, ICE and CBP will be funded through reconciliation (with NO Democrat votes) so liberals can’t play games with federal law enforcement funding,” Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin wrote on X. “
To be clear, this Democrat shutdown NEVER should have happened,” he continued. “To our great, patriotic employees who have continued to protect the homeland every single day without a guaranteed paycheck—thank you. President Trump and I are very grateful to be in the fight with you to Make America Safe Again.”
After two Immigration and Customs Enforcement protesters were shot and killed by federal agents in Minnesota in January, Democrats made clear they would not fund the agency without major reforms to immigration enforcement.
The White House and Democrats held negotiations to find a compromise, but the White House rejected multiple offers that it said put undue burdens on immigration agents.
