Of this resolution, Stauber stated, "As a parent, I am increasingly troubled by the Biden Administration's intent to paint parents who express concerns at school board meetings as domestic terrorists. Parents have a constitutionally-protected right to speak at school board meetings. This right is more important than ever with schools implementing critical race theory along with harmful mask and vaccine mandates. The Administration's approach is wrong. Parental rights matter, and Congress must demonstrate support for their First Amendment right to speak up." 24 Members of Congress joined Stauber in introducing this resolution.

BACKGROUND: After an interest group requested the Department of Justice label parents protesting at school board meetings as domestic terrorists, Attorney General Merrick Garland agreed by mobilizing the Justice Department. Four sitting members of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights condemned this action. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:24:51Z |
