“Moms for Liberty” is a national alt-right organization that claims to be grassroots but is anything but. This is a national problem that has come to roost in Kent County, which now boasts its own chapter. This organization encourages local chapters to follow scripts and action plans drafted with help from anti-liberal organizations like the conservative Heritage Foundation and The Leadership Institute. We are seeing this play out in our community; recently they have made their presence known at our Board of Education meetings, often speaking and acting in a confrontational and disruptive manner.
This article sheds light on who is really behind the organization and what it is really about: https://www.tampabay.com/opinion/2022/07/09/just-who-is-behind-moms-for-liberty-column/
We need to make sure that our Board of Education is composed of people who care about providing our children the best education that we can. We cannot allow those who would oppress and marginalize some students, in service to a national agenda that has no place here, to hold power over our schools. When you vote in this week’s Primary Election, please make sure to vote to preserve Democratic principles in education and to keep this radical agenda out of Kent County’s schools.
