On October 4, Attorney General Merrick Garland directed the FBI to mobilize against parents who oppose the teaching of critical race theory (CRT) in schools. This came shortly after the National School Boards Association (NBSA) sent a letter to President Biden, which slandered parents expressing their concerns about leftist indoctrination as “domestic terrorists.”

Today, FreedomWorks Foundation submitted a formal comment to President Biden’s Commission on the Supreme Court of the United States opposing its consideration of ‘reforms’ that would fundamentally change the Court and turn it into a weapon of partisan politics.

This year, FreedomWorks’ BEST (Building Education for Students Together) program has traveled across the country to train thousands of parents on how they can take back their school board one seat at a time. It’s clear that parents are eager to take action.

Today, the Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) sent a letter co-led with FreedomWorks to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell with a total of two dozen aligned policy and advocacy organizations to prioritize ending all federal pandemic unemployment programs and not making the anti-work changes (via ARP) to the child tax credit permanent.

The Big Picture

In his seminal graphic novel, The Watchmen, author Alan Moore presents a near future dystopia where law enforcement, unable to protect the citizenry, is supplanted by crime-fighting vigilantes. With no clear check against the vigilantes’ abuse of their power, the public quickly turns against these masked “heroes” using the oft repeated rallying cry: Who watches the Watchmen?

FreedomWorks is proud to announce that our member of the month for April 2021 is Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.). A new member now representing Florida’s 19th Congressional District in the southwest part of the state, Rep. Donalds came to Washington as a FreedomWorks For America-endorsed candidate after years of public service representing his fellow Floridians in the Florida House of Representatives.
