Trust in Public Schools Reaches All-Time Low, Revealed by Speaker McCarthy
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy criticized the low level of public trust in U.S. public schools, as shown in a Gallup poll. He blamed the Biden administration’s policies for diminishing the role of parents and accused them of labeling concerned parents as “domestic terrorists.” McCarthy promoted the House Republicans’ Parents Bill of Rights, which aims to strengthen the role of parents in their children’s education. He called on Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to allow a vote on the bill in the Senate and accused Democrats of being anti-parent.
