It looks like the NSBA thought this was going to be less public. The National School Board Association, the largest Teachers Union, claimed parents were domestic terrorists committing hate crimes. They sent a letter to the Biden Admin saying as much and A.G. Garland mobilized the FBI over that letter. But after a congressional hearing, it became very public and they thought they should apologize for exaggerating. So they sent out the following Apology to all of their members.
“As you all know there has been extensive media and other attention recently around our letter to
President Biden regarding threats and acts of violence against school board members. We wanted
to write to you directly to address this matter.
On behalf of NSBA, we regret and apologize for the letter. To be clear, the safety of school
board members, other public school officials and educators, and students is our top priority, and
there remains important work to be done on this issue. However, there was no justification for
some of the language included in the letter. We should have had a better process in place to
allow for consultation on a communication of this significance. We apologize also for the strain
and stress this situation has caused you and your organizations.
As we’ve reiterated since the letter was sent, we deeply value not only the work of local school
boards that make important contributions within our communities, but also the voices of parents,
who should and must continue to be heard when it comes to decisions about their children’s
education, health, and safety.
We are going to do better going forward. We are engaged in a formal review of our processes
and procedures. We will announce specific improvements soon to ensure there is improved
coordination and consultation among our staff, our board, and our members across the country.
The review will include not only the proceedings leading to the letter, but also other related
concerns raised by members even before the letter was sent.”
Yea the Libs are just trying to cover their bases as they clearly lied. Parents were just protesting that the schools were teaching Critical Race Theory and teachers were getting angry that they might have to listen to the demands of parents.
