This Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) examines Nikki Haley's language on gender and reproductive rights. By examining Haley's language through a CDA lens, the thesis illuminates the intersection of gender, power, and ideology in political communication. Utilizing CDA as both a method and theoretical framework, complemented by feminist theory, the thesis analyzes Haley's spoken language to reveal implicit meanings within her communication. The analysis centers on key aspects of her language use, including lexical choices, problematization, argumentation, and intensification, unveiling the underlying narratives and values that shape her stance on gender-related issues. The findings reveal that Haley uses the notion of protecting women and girls to portray abortion and trans rights. She advocates for consensus regarding abortion laws, but as an effort to advance her messaging. Haley views trans rights and gender advocacy as private concerns rather than social issues. By delving into the communicative intent behind Haley's discourse, the thesis contributes to a deeper understanding of political communication by female conservative politicians in the United States. Ultimately, this thesis enhances our comprehension of gender, politics, and power dynamics by revealing how Nikki Haley uses language to advance her political objectives.
