State Threatens School Counselor's License After She Denounced Gender Ideology at Public Rally
WILL attorneys issued a letter to the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) warning the state agency that an attempt to revoke an educator’s license for her remarks at a feminist rally in Madison violate the First Amendment. The Milwaukee Public Schools counselor spoke in opposition to “gender identity ideology” and expressed opposition to “gender ideology” in elementary schools at a rally in April. DPI opened an investigation into whether her educator license should be revoked for “immoral conduct.”
📺 WILL Deputy Counsel, Lucas Vebber, and Marissa Darlingh will appear Wednesday night on The Ingraham Angle on the Fox News Channel.
