Within hours of being sworn in as the new governor of Arkansas, Sarah Huckabee Sanders signs an executive order banning the term 'Latinx' from official use in the state government.
It is one of the first, if not the first, executive order of its kind, Tabitha Bonilla, an associate professor of human development and social policy at Northwestern University, told NBC News.
"It is something that seems to be tied to things that they object to, which is really anything that prioritizes marginalized people and marginalized points of view," Morales said. She used the findings of both institutions to eliminate what she considers"ethnically insensitive" and"pejorative language," according to theMorales said Sanders appears to have tried to use"the one Pew Hispanic report as evidence that people find it offensive or that they reject it" without considering that there have beenthat point to a small rise in the use of the term and the emergence of other gender neutral alternatives such as"Latine.
Nearly 4% of the eligible voting population in Arkansas is Hispanic, according to Pew. But"pandering" to Latino voters on cultural issues that may be considered divisive among some Hispanics could be on Sanders' radar if she's aspiring to venture out as a vice presidential or presidential candidate in the future, Bonilla added.
