Governor Glenn Youngkin and conservative parents are getting a little taste of the blue disease that still runs rampant in Virginia.
Suparna Dutta appointment to the state education school board has been blocked by Democrats.
This is not sitting well with a lot of parents.
No Thanks
Dutta was going to serve as Youngkin’s voice on that board.
If you recall, education was a major part of Youngkin’s platform, so having his nominee blocked is a pretty big deal.
Fairfax County parent Brooke Corbett stated, “Her ejection is a kick in the gut to all of us parents who are concerned about lack of transparency, lack of choice and hoards of our tax dollars being used to fund district-mandated social activism supplanting academics in the classroom.
“Voting to remove her because she’s not qualified for the board as a public school parent is just as ludicrous as stating parents should not be telling schools what to teach when they object to offensive, unacademic socialist instruction.”
Fight for Schools Executive Director Ian Prior added, “Unfortunately, this is all too common.
“Our schools and education system has become so infiltrated by angry, woke, know-it-all activists that it is going to take a generation to undo the damage.”
He added, “This says a lot about the far left and their so-called equity, diversity, and inclusion.
“What they really are for is uniformity of viewpoint and if that includes diversity then they get to go virtue signal as if that’s more important to them than finding people that will march in lockstep with their morally bankrupt ideas.”
Youngkin was clearly disappointed, stating, “She is a mother and advocate for parents’ rights, she is an immigrant and an advocate for Asian American rights, she is an engineer and advocate for STEM in education.
“She is not only qualified, she epitomizes parental involvement in our schools and we need her voice on our Board of Education.”
That is how Dems roll, though.
When they have the power, they let nobody else in.
