Shame on the Biden administration for threatening to withhold lunch money in exchange for fealty to its gender orthodoxy, writes Nicole Russell. RestoringAmerica
Unfortunately, forcing itson everyone, the Biden administration is asking nonprofit private schools to trade their values for literal lunch money. This scandal recently played out in a low-income community in Tampa, Florida. Children who attend Grant Park Christian Academy do so by receiving financial assistance from scholarship organizations. They also receive free meals from the school’s lunch program.
With the help of Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys, the school filed a lawsuit against Fried and President Joe Biden. The school also applied for an exemption to Biden’s program. Despite Fried’s warnings, state and federal government officialsthey would approve the exemption and application for funding for the 2022-2023 school year, which started just days ago. It’s not clear if they were motivated to approve the exemption due to the lawsuit, which alleged the Biden administration’s new rules discriminate against religion, but it sure seems like it.
The Biden administration seems to have forgotten that banishing sex-specific restrooms might seem inclusive to a handful of children while discriminating against dozens more. But until the private sector can churn out something akin to the National Lunch Program, which helps so many children, that responsibility remains relegated to the federal government. A government must remain fair and unbiased.
With the cost of food rising, forcing schools to adhere to an ideology that flies in the face of their values is discriminatory. It hurts children.
