福克斯首发:一个倡导家长权利的顶级保守组织周三将前往国会山,与共和党人和民主党人会面,讨论跨性别问题及其他议程项目。
自由妈妈组织正将其”家长誓言”带到国会,该组织成员预计将与来自路易斯安那州的共和党议长迈克·约翰逊及其他人士会面,以期扩大对其运动的支持,该运动旨在明确家长在学校及其他直接控制范围之外场所对子女所拥有的权利。
该组织联合创始人兼首席执行官蒂娜·德斯科维奇告诉福克斯新闻数字版:”自由妈妈组织从20个州带来了100名成员来到国会山。”

她说,国会议员将与唐纳德·特朗普总统一起签署他们的誓言,德斯科维奇称这是”对美国人民的常识性承诺,即你支持他们的权利”。
誓言中写道:”我承诺尊重父母的基本权利,包括但不限于指导子女教育、医疗保健和道德培养的权利。我承诺推进加强父母参与和决策的政策,提高透明度,抵御政府越权行为,并在各级政府中确保父母权利。”
据透露,该组织的立法优先事项包括:关闭学校健康诊所,反对任何规避学校中父母权威的政策,并要求学校让父母全面了解课程、教案、评估和学习标准。
在跨性别政策问题上,自由妈妈组织正推动维持学校体育、卫生间等按性别划分的空间,以及性别的生物学定义,并推广与学生和教职工性别一致的代词使用。
自由妈妈组织成立于2021年,最初是为了反对新冠疫情对学生的限制措施。

此后,该组织已发展成为一个全国性团体,在全美各地设有多个分会。
他们周三与约翰逊的会面意义重大,这标志着他们影响力的增强以及共和党对家长权利等文化战争问题的关注,尽管在11月中期选举中,他们仍在为保住控制权而奋力争取胜势。

FIRST ON FOX:A top conservative organization advocating parents’ rights is descending on Capitol Hill Wednesday to meet with both Republicans and Democrats on the subject of transgender issues and other agenda items.
Moms for Liberty is taking its “parents pledge” to Congress, with group members expected to sit down with Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and others in a bid to grow support for its movement to define what rights parents have over their children while in school and other places outside their immediate control.
“Moms for Liberty brought 100 members from across 20 states to Capitol Hill,” the group’s co-founder and CEO Tina Descovich told Fox News Digital.

She said members of Congress would join President Donald Trump in signing their pledge, which Descovich called “a commonsense promise to the American people that you support their rights.”
The pledge states, “I pledge to honor the fundamental rights of parents, including, but not limited to the right to direct the education, medical care, and moral upbringing of their children. I pledge to advance policies that strengthen parental involvement and decision-making, increase transparency, defend against government overreach, and secure parental rights at all levels of government.”
Among the group’s legislative priorities, Fox News Digital was told, are to eliminate school-based health clinics, oppose any policy that circumvents parental authority in schools, and require schools to give parents full access to curriculum, lesson plans, evaluations and learning standards.
On the issue of transgender policies, Moms for Liberty is pushing to maintain sex-specific spaces like school sports and restrooms, as well as the biological definition of sex and promoting pronoun usage consistent with students and staff members’ sex.
Moms for Liberty was established in 2021 to fight COVID-19 pandemic restrictions on students.

Since then, it’s ballooned into a nationwide group with multiple chapters across the country.
And their meeting with Johnson on Wednesday is notable in that it’s a sign of their influence and Republicans’ focus on culture war issues like parental rights, even as they fight an uphill battle to keep control during the November midterms.
