From the article referenced:
"In a historic and groundbreaking ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court today granted the Thomas More Society’s emergency application in Mirabelli v. Bonta, holding that secret gender transition policies in schools violate the religious liberty and due process rights of parents. The ruling restores the class action injunction that Thomas More Society had secured against the State of California for parents across the state who object to the state’s directives requiring schools to conceal children’s gender transitions from their own parents, facilitate those transitions without parental knowledge or consent, and compel teachers to actively deceive families.
The landmark 6-3 decision is the most significant parental rights ruling in a generation. The Court found that California’s secret transition regime likely violates parents’ rights under both the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment and the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, holding that the state “cut out the primary protectors of children’s best interests: their parents.”
Below are some of the books STILL ACCESSIBLE TO CHILDREN IN OUR LIBRARY. Why are they not relocated? At the behest of Christian County taxpayers, our county commissioners appointed board members whose focus was protecting children and making sexually explicit and age-inappropriate books accessible only to the adults in their lives.
Why, after months of discussion and a new executive director, is there not a collection policy for children and teens? Why would a policy need to be implemented on an "incremental" basis? What possible reason could there be to delay providing a policy that would help the library make informed decisions on books for our children? Something is rotten in the state of Denmark, to quote Shakespeare's Hamlet.
