The conservative watchdog group America First Legal (AFL) has introduced a “Parents’ Rights Toolkit” to assist parents in filing complaints with the Department of Education. The initiative is aimed at helping parents push back against what AFL describes as “woke leftist teachings in K-12 schools, colleges, and universities.”
The toolkit, according to a report by Fox News, provides resources and guidance for parents seeking to challenge school policies they believe are discriminatory, particularly those related to race and gender. It includes template letters for parents to submit complaints to the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, addressing potential violations of Title IX or other civil rights protections.
“For the past four years, public schools have been indoctrinating children with radical racist, antisemitic, and transgender ideologies,” said AFL senior advisor Ian Prior in a statement. “As these schools have blatantly violated civil rights law, the Biden Administration worked hand in glove to federalize the illegal practices. That ends in 2025, as the incoming administration has made clear that it will crack down on these woke schools that abuse their federal funds to implement insane ideologies that hurt children.”
AFL intends for the toolkit to be used by parents as the Trump administration prepares to take office and likely implement federal reforms within the Department of Education.
“AFL’s toolkit was created to help parents speak up for civil rights,” AFL explained in a news release. “Now is the time for them to do — these claims will provide the incoming Trump administration with a critical roadmap for ending woke indoctrination and discrimination in our schools and colleges.”
