Chairman Tim Walberg delivered a powerful opening statement challenging school districts that have lost sight of their primary mission: educating students. Walberg raised serious concerns about policies that exclude parents from major decisions involving their children, promote controversial gender ideology in classrooms, compromise student privacy and safety, and threaten the conscience rights of teachers and people of faith. “Schools need to stop playing politics, stop cutting out parents, and help students succeed,” Walberg said. From Chicago Public Schools’ curriculum and policies to national debates over parental involvement, religious liberty, and student safety, this hearing asks an important question: Who should have the final say in raising children — parents or government institutions? Watch Chairman Walberg’s opening remarks and decide for yourself.
