According to Vance, our country is run by 'a bunch of childless cat ladies' who 'don't really have a direct stake in [the country].' This view disregards the fact that all Americans, with or without children, have inherent stakes in the nation.
The belief in biological parents as the only 'real' parents, promoted by figures like J.D. Vance and reflected in Project 2025, discriminates against LGBTQ+ individuals, stepparents, adoptive parents, and families using assisted reproduction methods.
