About this sermon
A bright spot in the wake of what many consider a disheartening midterm, conservative school board candidates emerged victorious in a number of elections across the country last week to include left-leaning states like Maryland and New Jersey. In Florida, 25 of 30 school board candidates backed by Governor Ron DeSantis toasted victory. It seems like most of the races really came down to the question of parental rights in schools, topping every other issue. Education Reporter for the Washington Examiner, Jeremiah Poff, joins to share what more he can report. Earlier this year, Governor Ron DeSantis backed a bill banning instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity for younger students. He caught a lot of flack for it, but his move seemed a boon for the board members he backed. Poff tells us more about this. He discusses what the lesson is when looking at these school board victories across the board, even in left-leaning states. On another note, among the headlines this week, Montgomery County, Maryland schools unveiled a LGBTQ-inclusive booklist for students as young as 4. The books use words like "intersex" and "drag queen." Poff fills us in on this and what the reaction has been. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
