What the document says

“These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 451

The chapter says current policies focus on LGBTQ+ equity, subsidizing single motherhood, disincentivizing work and penalizing marriage. It asks that the department prioritize married father engagement in its messaging, health and welfare policies, and says that in reproductive technology policy the desires of adults should never be placed over the right of children to be raised by the biological parents who conceive them.

What the document actually says

“These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 451
That sentence, in plain words

These rules should be repealed. New ones should back married families instead.

What this is about

The book says current rules help single parents. It says they discourage marriage. It wants rules that support married couples raising children.

How to read this page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the book itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
