House Passes Trump-Backed Bill Protecting Parental Rights From Woke Schools

“Parents are the first and foremost educators and protectors of their children,” it began.

“Yet radical school districts across America have allowed gender ideology indoctrination in schools, even to the point of allowing teachers and other government officials to secretly attempt to socially ‘transition’ a child away from his or her sex without the knowledge or consent of the child’s parents,” the statement continued.

“These policies not only violate existing Federal law, but also betray the trust parents place in schools to educate, not indoctrinate, their children,” it said.

“On January 20, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order (E.O.) 14168, ‘Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government,’ which recognized that there are only two sexes, male and female, and directed agencies to eliminate the promotion of gender ideology,” the statement continued.

“Shortly thereafter, on January 29, 2025, President Trump issued E.O. 14190, Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling,’ which directed Federal agencies to end the use of Federal funds in K-12 schools from supporting ‘the instruction, advancement, or promotion of gender ideology,” the White House noted further.

“The E.O. also directed Federal agencies to protect parental rights, including under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, (FERPA) and the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA),” it said.
