Political Quotes

On the recordOctober 19, 2021
Mr. Speaker, Democrats are politicizing the Justice Department and embarking on a witch hunt, this time to go after parents. Parents across the country are bravely taking a stand to protect their children against overly restrictive COVID-19 mandates and identity politics indoctrination. In response, the Biden administration is weaponizing law enforcement agencies to intimidate them into silence. Some parents have crossed the line. Harassing and threatening school officials is unacceptable. But there is no evidence that parents pose a widespread threat to school administrators. Yet, the National School Boards Association is asking the Biden administration to treat these parents like domestic terrorists. Attorney General Merrick Garland's outrageous memo, giving credence to these accusations, shows the Biden administration cares more about appeasing special interests than Americans concerned about their children. This attack on the First Amendment cannot continue. Parents must be allowed to stand up for their kids. ____________________
