Maybe stop for a second and consider how this bill is meant to act in concert with library book bans and cuts to school curriculum. Conservatives are coordinating bills and policies to cut off access to important knowledge about marginalized communities.

The only way the far-right can build a young political base is if they can keep entire generations ignorant and uneducated, and unfortunately kids in red districts can’t rely on getting the education they need to be informed citizens from schools.
