Say No to Indoctrination Act Introduced to Codify Trump's Executive Order

U.S. Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kansas) has joined Senator Jim Risch (R-Idaho) in introducing the Say No to Indoctrination Act, a bill aimed at preventing taxpayer dollars from funding radical gender ideology in K-12 schools. The legislation is designed to codify President Trump's executive order, which prohibited the use of federal funds for promoting gender theory in schools. Senator Marshall believes that schools should focus on providing children with future-ready skills rather than promoting radical ideology.
