Title IX in the Crosshairs:
But State Attorneys General Fight Back

The law known as Title IX was signed by President Richard Nixon in 1972. It was a simple, one-sentence rule that had broad support from both Republicans and Democrats because most politicians did not consider it controversial. The purported original intent of Title IX was to prevent discrimination against women who wanted to play college-level sports at post-secondary schools that receive federal funds, but some conservative leaders considered it a feminist ploy to diminish men's sports.

Whatever the case, according to Dr. Buddy Ullman, retired professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at Oregon University of Health & Science: "The real problem started in the 1990s when the Supreme Court made several rulings that expanded the definition of gender discrimination to include harassment and assault." In a June 2 interview with Phyllis Schlafly Eagles President Ed Martin on his ProAmerica Report, Ullman explained: "These are politically motivated regulations that govern how schools must handle disputes — sexual harassment disputes, sexual assault claims, under the guise of Title IX."

The Transgender Juggernaut Marches On

Despite significant negative exposure by conservative media outlets, authors, activists, and parents' groups, efforts by the progressive left to force-feed dangerous and destructive transgender propaganda to schoolchildren continue unabated. According to The Epoch Times, a phenomenon known as "secret transgender transition closets," which originated at the college level, is surfacing in public high schools and middle schools.

The Western Journal's Elizabeth Stauffer observed with sarcasm on April 24: "Activist teachers understand how painful it can be for students whose parents won't allow them to dress as the gender they identify as. And they've come up with a solution — 'secret gender transition closets.'"

Take Kids Out of Public Schools! Some Parents are Doing Just That

For the first time in his career, Dr. Mark McDonald, psychiatrist and author of United States of Fear: How America fell victim to a mass delusional psychosis, is telling parents to take their children out of the public schools. McDonald says the public-school system "is not only a failure but irredeemable. It is utterly controlled by teachers' unions and advocates, meaning those who go into the schools to proselytize their ideology on your children. They have no other purpose; no other function."

In an online interview with producer Mikki Willis* of Plandemic Series.com, McDonald said: "We would be better off if all parents pulled their children out of the government schools and either did homeschooling or built their own schools in their local communities. That would cause the corrupt, rotten, termite-infested structure to collapse under its own weight, and we could rebuild at the local level."

Teachers also leaving public schools

On May 26, The Epoch Times published an article projecting a "mass exodus" of teachers from public-school classrooms this fall. The Times attributes the "overwhelming number of educators [who are] planning to close the book on their teaching careers" to excessive workload, mostly caused by staffing shortages and post-pandemic student behavioral issues, as well as early retirement and/or pursuit of a different career path.

The article points out that "widespread educator shortages predate the arrival of COVID-19, but the pandemic also served as the last straw for many, kicking off the trend of early departure." There are fewer counselors to serve the increased percentage of students emotionally damaged from the pandemic, and just as likely from the woke agenda they are being force-fed. Teachers also complain of an increasing lack of respect for educators. "The respect situation is just a huge issue," former Nebraska public schools' superintendent, educator, and counselor, Gary Marks, told The Times "And you need way more counselors when you're having all these mental health issues."
