New Hampshire Senate Bill 272 (SB272) is coming up for a vote in the NH House this week and probably tomorrow, Thursday, May 18th. It is the Parental Rights Bill. Legislation that the following School Board Members want them to vote down.
These elected school board members don’t want parents to have rights over their own children in the public schools for which these parents pay. It’s insulting to parents, guardians, and caregivers.
They are, of course, entitled to their opinion, and you are entitled to know theirs.
The following list was sent to me via email. Please take a moment to read it.
If you plan to contact your legislator(s) before tomorrow morning to let them know that you support parents’ rights, please be brief and polite.
