saying yesterday about the bill. you hear the back and forth from congressman scalise why they couldn t get common ground. bills like this make schools more hostile and results in hate, bigotry and death. jamming the extreme maga republican ideology down the throats of the children and the parents. when we talk about progressive values, i can say what my progressive value is. that is freedom over fascism. congressman mike johnson, louisiana republican, member of the house armed services and house judiciary committees and chairman on the subcommittee on constitution and limited government and weaponization of federal government. that s a lot of committees. good to see you, sir. thank you for being here today. explain to people at home as they hear both sides of this. they hear an argument from kevin
mccarthy and steve scalise that it is good common sense for schools and the other side says it will promote hate and even death. explain to people what this bill that you all just passed, what does it actually do? listen, i think the comments from democratic colleagues speak for himself. it is absurd they would say such things and that we would need to have the vote we had today, martha. the supreme court has acknowledged the obvious fact that parents have a fundamental and constitutional right to make the decisions with regard to their care, custody and control of their own children and should be able to go and exercise the first amendment right to go to a school board meeting and advocate for curriculum decisions and other things. washington democrats and their allies on the left believe they know better than parents and they have been trying to censor and silence parents views, keep them out of these decisions. we affirmed once again what has
