Cruz and Rubio Introduce Bills to Ban Federal Use of 'Latinx'

Republican senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio introduced legislation in the Senate to ban federal agencies from using the term "Latinx."
The bills aim to stop the Biden administration from promoting use of "Latinx," which critics view as an elite, progressive term not widely embraced by Hispanic Americans.
Supporters of the bills argue "Latinx" goes against Spanish grammar rules and is being imposed on the community by liberal elites.
Similar legislation banning "Latinx" has been introduced in some states and passed in Arkansas.
While the Biden administration has encouraged "Latinx" as gender inclusive, surveys show it is not widely used or known among most Hispanics.
