Just 8 House Democrats vote for parental consent pronouns bill…

The U.S. House of Representatives voted 217–198 to require federally funded elementary and middle schools to obtain parental consent before changing a student’s gender on forms or sex-based accommodations.
Defending Education polling from 2023 shows 71% of voters support such a bill on parental consent and that majorities still support it even when broken down by race and political party.
The bill was sponsored by Rep. Tim Walberg, R-Mich., chairman of the Committee on Education and the Workforce, who framed the bill as one where parents and schools “should be working together to support student success—not at odds with one another,” emphasizing student success as a reason he hoped his bill would receive bipartisan support.
“This legislation moves us in that direction by strengthening trust, improving transparency, and keeping the focus where it belongs—on students’ education,” he said.
Walberg also pointed to a Defending Education study, explaining that it found “at least 21,000 schools across the U.S. have policies that allow or encourage staff to hide a student’s name change or gender identity,” adding that “a lack of transparency risks confusion, undermines trust, and weakens the essential partnership between families and schools.”
Families have been impacted by schools transitioning their children without any consent or awareness, leading to lawsuits.
“Many schools are engaged in systematic attempts to erode parental rights,” Walberg said. “Schools are facilitating gender transitions or encouraging students to change their names and pronouns without telling parents.” These are “enormously consequential decisions that have lasting impacts on a child’s well-being and development.”
He also highlighted a desire for there to be more of a focus on academics. “Why aren’t schools more focused on helping students recover academically?” Walberg wondered. “Test scores in key subjects remain stagnant or have declined, and students are still working to overcome pandemic-era learning loss.”

ALl 435 Congress critters are up for re-election.
I would bet that they are up for re-election in districts where REPUBLICANS have a better chance of kicking their *** in their election.

The Democratic Party seems intransigent on their position of keeping the party ‘woke,’ detached, exclusionary, and totally insane.
