密歇根州共和党众议员、众议院共和党会议主席丽莎·麦克莱恩谴责了密歇根州里士满的一所校董会，此前该校部分成员试图罢免一名因赴中东军事部署而缺席会议的保守派同僚。
雷·斯蒂尔此前一直在远程参加校董会会议，并于周四从麦克莱恩手中获得了一面美国国旗和一份《国会记录》，以表彰他的工作。但他最终失去了虚拟参会权限。
就在此时，校董会以他的缺席造成“失职”为由，要求将他罢免。
“其中一名校董的家人在社交媒体上散布关于我和我妻子的虚假信息，内容完全不符合事实，随后最终呼吁我辞职，并鼓动其他人联系学区要求罢免我，”斯蒂尔回忆道。
家长们表示将竞选地方校董会职位，以对抗“有毒”的批判性种族理论

这一事件只是共和党与校董会之间最新一轮冲突的缩影，双方争执的核心是共和党认为相关政策正在限制校园内的思想多样性与问责制。
“我认为教育极其重要且至关重要，”麦克莱恩在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时表示。
“教育工作者和管理人员应当教导学生如何思考，而非思考什么。现在是时候让管理人员为自己的行为负责了，无论好坏。”
麦克莱恩与斯蒂尔会面的前一周，她刚在一场国会听证会上质询了弗吉尼亚州的一名学区总监，就学生隐私政策展开盘问，质疑相关政策是否存在双重标准，偏袒跨性别学生。

“受害者被停学10天，而拍摄视频的生理女性仅被停学1天，”麦克莱恩谈到劳登县石桥高中一起学生在更衣室拍摄遭处分的事件时说道。
“这怎么说得通？”
在斯蒂尔的事件中，麦克莱恩质疑校董会是否仅仅因为斯蒂尔海外部署就针对性地针对他。斯蒂尔此前得知学区的部分浴室政策允许四年级学生与跨性别八年级男生共用浴室后，与校董会产生了分歧。
“在他填补这个空缺席位之前，该席位已经空缺了两个月，”麦克莱恩指出。“所以这个逻辑推论对我来说根本说不通；站不住脚。”

就斯蒂尔本人而言，他认为自己的案例将重新唤起人们对校董会及其成员重要性的关注。
“我的目标是继续为社区发声。我认为这件事带来的一个积极影响是，它引发了广泛关注，让一些此前未了解背后未被公开的复杂情况的社区成员意识到了问题，”斯蒂尔说。

House GOP Conference Chairwoman Lisa McClain, R-Mich., rebuked a school board in Richmond, Michigan, after some of its members tried to remove a conservative colleague for missing meetings while on military deployment to the Middle East.
Ray Stier, who received an American flag and a copy of the Congressional Record from McClain on Thursday as a commendation of his work, had been on deployment, attending board meetings remotely, but eventually lost virtual access.
That’s when the board called for his removal, citing a “disservice” caused by his absence.
“One of the board members’ family was taking to social media and putting out misinformation about myself and my wife and things that were not factually accurate and then ultimately calling for my resignation and prompting others to reach out to the district to call for my recall,” Stier recounted.

The moment is just the most recent clash between Republicans and school boards over policies that, in their view, are gatekeeping schools against diversity of thought and accountability.
“I think education is extremely important and vital,” McClain told Fox News Digital.
“And educators and administrators need to teach children how to think, not what to think. It’s about time that administrators begin to get held accountable for their actions. Good actions and bad actions.”
McClain’s meeting with Stier comes on the heels of a congressional hearing last week where she grilled a superintendent from Virginia over student privacy policy, probing if those policies were being unevenly applied to favor transgender students.

“The victims got a 10-day suspension and the biological female that did the filming got a one-day suspension,” McClain said, referring to an incident at Stone Bridge High School in Loudoun County where students had been reprimanded for filming in a locker room.
“How does that make sense?”
In Stier’s case, McClain questioned whether the board had targeted Stier on account of just his deployment overseas. Stier had clashed with the board after learning that some of the district’s bathroom policies would have allowed fourth-grade students to use the same bathroom as transgender eighth-grade boys.
“Prior to him filling the seat, the seat was open for two months,” McClain observed. So that logical argument doesn’t exactly make sense to me; it doesn’t really hold a lot of water.”

For his own part, Stier believes his case will refocus attention on the importance of the school board and its membership.
“My goal is to continue being an advocate for the community. One of the good things that I think came out of this was that it got so much attention that some of the community members who were unaware of the dynamics that were not being brought to light,” Stier said.
