House Republicans narrowly passed the Parents Bill of Rights Act, sending the proposal along to the Senate, where it is likely to fail.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Rep. Julia Letlow pose for a photo with children during an introduction of the"Parents' Bill of Rights," on Capitol Hill, March 1, 2023, in Washington.on Friday, sending the proposal along to the Senate, where it is highly unlikely to receive a vote.

The bill would require schools to publish educational materials such as catalogs of books kept in libraries and course curricula. Other provisions establish parental rights to request meeting with educators, address school board meetings and review district budgets. "It had a good response in the Rules Committee [despite] the Democrats trying to demonize the bill saying it's 'banning books,'" Foxx told ABC News. "It has nothing to do with that, so, no, I feel really good about it," she said.

"Their educational agenda is pretty simple: They want to ban books, they want to bully the LGBTQ+ community [and] they want to bring guns into classrooms, kindergarten and above," House Minority Leader Hakeem JeffriesSenate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer pledged not to bring it up for a vote in the upper chamber.

Democrats in the senate and the president don’t believe in parents rights. They want the state to have control of your children.

Trump broke ABC news. Low ratings propaganda outlet

Yes it probably will fail because democrats care NOTHING about our youth, if they did they would do something about the THOUSANDS DYING due the drugs coming from the open borders.

The rights of only the parents who agree with the GOP agenda!

A Parents Bill of Rights would probably have bipartisan support if the decision to change educational curriculum and standards would fall to the majority of parents, school board members, and most importantly, because they teach the children, educators

Speaks volumes for democrats who think they own your children and want to teach them to hate each other based on skin color and question their gender

Thank goodness it'll fail; thank goodness.

Permission to groom little red voters … imagine the rules for a student. No freedom of expression GUARANTEED

Until next election now that people know the Democrats want to keep you away from your own child's education.

Private schools will soar in enrollment if not passed

If parents are informed, it could threaten the left-wing indoctrination. Can’t have that, can we?

Democrat politicians think parents shouldn't have a right to transparency in what their children are being exposed to in school.

There will be a lot of bills passed by Congress that the Senate will oppose. That will leave it up to the voters in 2024 to decide if they approve or disapprove. The names on both sides are recorded.

Democrats love having sexual talks with other people's little kids.

Abc here fighting for child pornography.. messed up

Look no further than Minnesota. That is the face of the Democratic Party and where the Dems want to go. This bill is an attempt to build a wall, though it will fail. Sadly, 5 Republicans voted against this measure.

I used to think thay had real republicans but after backing trump bribing another country and attacking the capital now backing him attacking the rule of law thay are just as guilty

Oh thank goodness. This means those rights also translate to parents who have trans kids, right?

Democrats hate children except to kill them and exploit them!

Your telling me , parents didn’t have any rights before? Wtg Republicans, waste of taxpayer money and time

Parents already have all the rights that the GOP is saying that the Federal Government should be overseeing, this is why we elect school boards to gather input from parents and make decisions at the local level. You know the conservative principle of limited government.

Because, God forbid, Democrats want parent to have rights over their children. Marxists

After reading the proposed bill I already have most of these “rights” as an involved parent. The other “rights” don’t say how parents would obtain the info. Are teachers expected to document and report daily on the kids to their parents? Is that really the roll of an educator?

Look at all those privileged white people with their privileged white kids, must be nice to only complain about others problems that are not affecting you.

Bill of nothing!

The senate they don’t care about parents right and the sa of kids

Of course the dems won't pass it. It rakes power away from them

I want to know when they are going to pass the Parents Bill of Responsibilities.

Democrats are against codifying parental rights. That's all you need to know.

Dems think they own your children.

Can’t you simply bring proper common sense back into the eduction system that we and our forefathers learned from ?

Taxpayers - not politicians or teachers unions - pay for the public school system. They deserve to have a seat at the table.

Why are Dems against transparency? 🤔

Wow, nothing but White People there....hmmm.

Republicans are anti mask anti vaccine anti gun control anti choice racist misogynist homophobic 'christian' white separatist insurrectionist agents of chaos & death.

So much ado about nothing, despite Republicans touting their “accomplishments” in the house!

They are saying that their rights as the minority group of people are more important than the majority of us. That is all they are doing- keeping power as the minority group. Most people don’t think like republicans.

Umm so which parent’s will have rights? You know it won’t be all and you know the only one who will have a say is the parent that can’t see the David statue w/out salivating so…it’s not parent’s choice. It’s selective choice and it’s supporting the destruction of education.

BS. Don’t they want the kids to learn?

Not going to pass in the senate!

Lazy parents… the only rights parents need from government in schools is SAFETY! For their kids not to be executed, ripped to shreds by assault weapons, needing a DNA kit to be identified (Gov Abbott😡) BanAssaultWeaponsNow not give rights to lazy parents they already have

The liberal fascist DNC wants complete control over our children in government controlled fascist schools! They want propaganda and indoctrination of our youth to raise up a country of RACIST DEI compliant people who rely on the government dole! NOPE, not happening!

Stupid measure

No children of color?

Parents already sit on textbook committees, can go online to see lesson plans, can call or email the teacher or school. Why aren't the parents doing any of this?

If only they could do something like perhaps focus on things that NEED to be done in this country. 🙄

I guess my generation has grown up knowing about banned books , book burning’s and the history of this. Spent my day in a highschool and neither of the 2 young teachers I worked with seemed remotely aware of what is happening . I tried to tell them….gently hope it sunk in.

This will hit many young teachers not following politics by surprise . When it does I pray that they will join this fight against fascism.

Awful!

More proof the GOP wants to control your every move, thoughts and freedom to choose!!

White, white as snow.

Parents that want 100% oversight and control over everything should homeschool. Curriculum, budgets, and conferences have always been available. Parents could come to the library anytime.

Parents are not trying to dictate curriculum. But due to school staff and Administration who think sex belongs in a curriculum… then parents have a right to input and cancel out sexually based material!

Golly gee…if I remember right…we had this back in my day. It was called Parent/Teacher Conference. Parents and teachers actually talked to each other to discuss the child and how they’re doing, etc., etc. when did this end?

Where is the Bill of Responsibilities?

Yeah God forbid parents know and have a say in THEIR OWN children education and lives 🙄

I think that this bill is pretty stupid because for one thing not every parent cares about what their child does in school, which is sad because even if the parent saw everything that the school has unfortunately some parents don’t care about what the school does

Democrats are ridiculous all they care about is power

Democrats are against parents having a say in their own child's education. All the more reason why they should never hold power.

Why celebrate something that still hasn't passed the Senate .that's dum

Parents raise Nobel winners and serial killers. That's why it makes sense to have additional influences in a child's life, to prepare them for a world that isn't precisely arranged by mom and dad.

so-called by its proponents - strips public education even further if that can be believed. Come on Senate, save us this time

This is their strategy to try and silence young people since it was young people who cost them the White House and the Senate.

Only for white parents

The House seems to be really worried about inflation.

They weren’t honest enough to name it the “white,straight parents’ bill of rights”

Good. Now pay attention to the facts of Republican Plan to Make Voting Irrelevant!! Citizen Voters put prosecutors into office and Republicans file bills to remove their power to prosecute. That ain’t democracy, it’s fascism. GOPDomesticTerrorists

In what world do they think that every parent of every student will ever decide on a curriculum? This is the very reason we elect school boards that hold meetings seeking parental input. So if I don’t like the content of a particular lesson, I alone can have it removed?

It sure will fail

Incredible BS. This will alienate young people and cause suicide rate to increase.

Home School Them....you can have all the control you want.

Thoughts and prayers

It it nonsense and should fail

Dies in the Senate or vetoed by the greatest President of our generation.

Imagine being the fringe freak that thinks parents shouldn't have rights over their children. The entire DNC needs to be dissolved.

Bc democrats believe children are property of the gov

House GOP passes parents’ rights bill in clash over schoolsHouse GOP press forward Friday with a midterm promise by voting on legislation to give parents greater say in what is taught in public schools, even as critics decry the “parents’ rights” bill would fuel a far-right movement that has resulted in book bans Itll be DOA on arrival to the Senate. More showboating with no substance from the GQP But here in Colorado they’re ignoring parents and kids demanding action on gun violence. So much for phony concern. Those books were age-inappropriate and you know it. Continuing to harp the same warped and twisted mantra just makes you look like you support those who continue to ignore children's maturity levels, DP.

House GOP passes parents’ rights school bill after AOC, Dems cry ‘fascism’House Republicans voted overwhelmingly to pass an education bill aimed at protecting parental rights on Friday despite outcry from Democrats like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that likened the law … 'Safeguarding parental rights is the furthest thing from a fascist position — it’s about upholding the God-given rights of parents to make decisions for their children.' RepMalliotakis It’s a foil, a distraction. The Repubs & their cronies focus on ruining the lives of the small % of trans kids & their families, so they don’t have to focus on funding & improving the lives of multitudes of kids & families who can’t access needed health care! Thank you!!!!!!
