Dear Friend, For many years, radicals on local school boards have flown "under the radar," quietly adopting leftist curriculum and reading material without parents' knowledge. But with public schools going remote during the pandemic, millions of parents saw and heard their children's teachers unfiltered for the first time and the Left's secret was revealed. Now, their socialist brainwashing plans are being disrupted. Millions of parents were shocked and started getting involved. This is our opportunity! Never before have so many parents been ready to stand up to their local school boards, demand accountability, and even remove them from office for secretly undermining the values of the people they are supposed to serve. In fact, over the last two days, the FRC Action team has been on the ground in North Carolina conducting school board candidate trainings, meeting many of these concerned parents who want to take the next step in having a voice in their children's education. In many of America's 13,800 school districts, grassroots efforts are beginning to nominate conservative, pro-family, pro-American candidates to run against left-wing incumbents. Some have launched recall campaigns to unseat school board members before the next elections. We need to grow these small and sometimes disorganized efforts into an army of activists ready to do battle on behalf of the family and America. Many parents need help organizing neighbors, uniting communities, producing clear and compelling messages, talking to the press, recruiting and training solid candidates, and more. And with your faithful support today, FRC Action stands ready and willing to give them the help they need!
As a friend of FRC Action, you know that we were able to have an impact on the huge conservative string of state legislative and congressional victories in the 2020 elections, not to mention prior victories at many levels of elected government. With our experienced team here in Washington, our expansive get-out-the-vote operation, my daily Washington Watch program (now broadcast on nearly 800 radio stations as well as DIRECTV channel 378!), and our influential presence on social media, we have mobilized Christian conservatives to defend our cherished biblical values like no one else. Now, with the future of American education in crisis, we are focusing our national expertise on key local elections by providing, at no charge, much-needed resources to help replace radical school board members with Christian and conservative parents and other qualified candidates. Our current resources include: - Issues education. Our experts include those who worked with and served in President Trump's Department of Education. We are educating parents and conservative activists on the issues and with the knowledge needed to actually uncover what is being taught in their local schools.
- Candidate training and basic campaign organizing are vital to this effort so we are providing that in special virtual and in-person School Board Boot Camps.
- Partnership with iVoterGuide, which is expanding to cover local school board races.
- Partnership with conservative Christian pollster George Barna and FRC's Center for Biblical Worldview, which is on a mission to teach Christians to see all of life through the lens of Scripture, equipping them to live out and defend the faith in their families, communities, and the public square.
- A network of thousands of pastors and local grassroots leaders across the country who stand ready to provide practical support and guidance for newly involved political activists.
- And many more resources to come as quickly as we can develop them!
Thanks to your faithful prayers and generous support, we can offer many practical resources to this brand-new wave of engaged parents and other concerned grassroots activists. We are short on both time and funding needed to reach hundreds of thousands of parents and other community members who are willing to take the time and effort to stop this leftist agenda for our schools before we lose another generation -- and our country. To be victorious over the radical Left's agenda, we must stand with these willing and eager new activists by providing them with the basic knowledge and skills needed to succeed. And we must be prepared to provide that help quickly... because the radical Left has a decades-long head start on us! The Left is proficient at playing the "long game." It has taken decades, but they started by taking over the universities and pumping out Left-leaning educators and then by seizing America's public school classrooms by controlling local school boards so they could ensure their radical ideology permeated the curriculum. But with your sustained partnership, FRC Action is working against them both in the short-term by winning elections, from the school board to the White House, and in the long-term by ensuring that our schools pass on the values that made America free and prosperous to the next generation. Please stand with us right now in reaching, equipping, and mobilizing our courageous brothers and sisters across America with whatever the Lord leads you to give. Now is the time to act on behalf of our country. I don't know how many more opportunities God will bless us with, but I am thankful that, in His mercy and grace, He has blessed us with one more chance to pull our beloved nation back from the brink. I hope and pray that I can count on your partnership now -- when the future of America's children, and the future of America itself, is on the line. Thank you, and may God richly bless you for your faithfulness in giving. Standing (Eph. 6:13),
