Support Parental Rights! State School Board Meeting Wed, Sept 6

A Message from our friends at the Center for Garden State Families.

By Rev. Greg Quinlan

It has been said that "Life goes to those who just show up."
 
The battle over Parental Rights in New Jersey is fierce and the Governor and his Attorney General (AG) are not letting up. Lawsuits by the government of New Jersey have been filed against four New Jersey school districts who stood up for the God-given rights of parents to direct the education of their own children. Two important events are taking place next Wednesday, September 6th.
 
First:
The Hanover Twp., School Board was sued by the Attorney General in June over a parental rights policy they passed regarding the right of a parent to be notified of any gender identity issues regarding their child. The Hanover Board amended the policy in June, and a second injunction was filed against the district last Friday. A court hearing is scheduled in Morris County Superior Court at 9:30 a.m., next Wednesday morning September 6, regarding the State's request to implement the injunction and prevent the district from implementing the policy. We are asking members of the public to show up to support the Board's efforts. The hearing will take place at the Morris County Court House, on Court St.
 
Second:
The NJ State Board of Education, in August, voted 6-5 in favor of adopting amendments to Chapter 7, Equity and Equality in Education. At that meeting, the state school board erased equality and replaced it with the word equity. They also removed all references to male and female, erasing biological human genders.  The Board passed the amendments, even though it was obvious that some of them didn't understand what they were voting on. The regulations violate all definitions of traditional human sexuality as well as parental authority. Following their vote, multiple politicians from both parties in the legislature complained. We understand that several of those who voted against biological reality are now having second thoughts about their vote. They do have the authority to bring up the issue again and have a revote.
 
This Wednesday at 10 a.m., the State Board of Education will meet in Trenton at 100 Riverview Plaza. Public testimony will begin at 2 p.m. on any educational topic. This Open Testimony only takes place three times per year. Registration has been closed, as it has reached capacity. But even if you haven't registered, or have been closed out, we are asking people to show up to rally for Parental Authority at 1 p.m. before the hearing begins. Anyone can attend the hearing.
 
ADDITIONALLY:
There is a process to appeal a regulation passed by the NJ Board of Education. We are asking for every NJ citizen to file a petition to repeal the new regulations. Every petition needs to be answered by the Commissioner. Our goal is to have hundreds and possibly over 1000 petitions filed BEFORE the Board meeting.
 
It's very easy to do. PLEASE do this TODAY!
 
Here's the link:
https://www.nj.gov/education/code/petitions/submit.shtml
 
The code in question is: N.J.A.C. 6A:7
 
Reasons for Repeal:
* Unconstitutional-violates the 14th amendment and the long-standing legally recognized parental authority and oversight of children.
* Anti-Science- "There are no replicated scientific studies supporting any specific biologic etiology for LGBTQIA-XYZ+++ identities."
* Violates Religious Freedoms- the policy in fact endorses the faith-based assumption of the alphabet soup.
* Harms Children New Jersey government schools transgender ideologies along with alternative sexual identities is being pushed on children as early as preschool!
* Government over-reach -This is outside the constitutional definition and parameters of state government.
* Socialist in nature - this is social engineering, the methods by which the state of New Jersey, the Gov. and his Atty. Gen. is using to implement these ideologies smacks of Marxism!
 
For additional ideas, here's a letter written by the Association of Physicians and Surgeons to the State Board to oppose the new Standards: https://aapsonline.org/aaps-opposes-nj-board-of-education-anti-science-vote-to-enact-harmful-equity-code/
 
Action requested: Repeal of new regulations and return to previous standards.
 
The Center for Garden State Families urges all New Jersey citizens to become involved and to seek the divine protection of Almighty God for our children and families.
