"The prayer to open the 117th Congress ended with 'amen and a-women.' Amen is Latin for 'so be it.' It's not a gendered word. Unfortunately, facts are irrelevant to progressives. Unbelievable." -Tweet by Rep. Guy Reschenthaler

Of course, the word has absolutely no meaning as it relates to one's sex or gender identity. The word "amen," historically invoked at the end of a prayer, has its roots in a Hebrew word that means "certainty" or "truth."
