Hello, my fellow citizens of the 94th district. In the months leading to the primary election next year, I'd like to share my thoughts on issues facing our district and our great state. Today, I want to discuss with you some of the concerns I have regarding education.
The Bible says, "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction." Friends, our country has lost its fear of God. We can see this very clearly in our education system. Time and time again, we've seen our country fall behind in educating our children. Knowledge is no longer commonly found in our schools. Instead, our children are facing things today that would have been deemed crazy just five years ago.
Recently, The Daily Signal reported how a federal judge in Ohio struck down a lawsuit from concerned parents, which would combat schools in Ohio that permit boys to use girls' bathrooms. Our children must be protected from the Left's insane ideologies.
The current platform of the North Carolina Democrat Party lays out the Left's desire to provide "age-appropriate sex educational programs in our schools…so that educators are empowered and permitted to provide scientifically accurate information about safe sexual practices." This is not only crazy but downright evil. Now, I'm grateful that our state legislature has made significant veto overrides recently to combat the Left's push, but we cannot become complacent. Were the Democrats to regain control of the legislative and executive branch, the ground we have gained could be lost; we need to prevent that from happening.
As citizens of the 94th district, we need to stand together against the liberal ideologies that are designed to infect our children. Our schools must teach children how to read, write, and do arithmetic. Our children need to learn the rich history of our country and state. Our children need to understand why they should be proud to be Americans.
We all need to be vigilant in attending our local school board meetings and hold our local officials accountable, offering praise when they do a good job and opposition when they do not. Friends, we need to send brave and courageous leaders to Raleigh who will stand against the Left's agenda to target our children and do what is right above what is easy.
That is why I am running to represent you in the 94th district. Together, with your support and prayers, we can make sure that our communities and state have the tools they need to fight against the Democrats who want to destroy our great land and endanger the futures of our children.
