REP. MARY MILLER CALLS FOR IMMEDIATE HOUSE EDUCATION COMMITTEE HEARING FOR SEC. CARDONA

WASHINGTON - Congresswoman Mary Miller (R-IL), a member of the House Education and Labor Committee, released the following statement after news reports suggest that President Biden's Secretary of Education was involved in requesting a letter from the National School Boards Association calling for the FBI to intimidate parents who show up to school board meetings:

"The House Education and Labor Committee must hold immediate hearings with Biden Department Education Secretary Cardona so we can ask him under oath if he solicited a memo calling for the FBI to intimidate and harass parents for showing up to school board meetings," Miller said. "The federal government should never treat parents like terrorists for speaking up at public hearings to oppose racist Critical Race Theory or the perverted sex-ed curriculum that is being forced upon their children."

"I wrote a letter to Secretary Cardona today asking him if this report is true and if he believes that parents should be treated like domestic terrorists for being active in their child’s education. Parents are in charge of the school system, not liberal activists in Washington, DC who try to use the FBI as their political police force."

The full letter is attached.
