I don't understand how people don't see this for what it is. It's a political response to drag queen story time and spicy books at the school library.
Who knows where it will end, I'd prefer it if everyone stopped using children to further their agenda.
Libraries:
-
Voluntary attendance
-
No required reading lists
-
Religious texts from most faiths, and books about those religions
Schools:
-
Penalties for both parents and students for attendance issues
-
State-mandated curriculums
-
Literally just ten rules from the Old Testament
