NextImg:VIDEO: Republicans Tell USDA It Can’t Bully Schools

Some bullying tactics never change, but you would hope that people would eventually grow out of them. It seems the United States Department of Agriculture never did.

Last year, the USDA proposed a rule change that would pressure public and non-profit private schools into embracing the LGBTQ agenda by threatening to take away the funding for school lunches that the agency provides if it found that the schools were being “discriminatory.” The proposal received backlash from Republicans, and, on Tuesday, Rep. Scott Franklin (R-Fla.) and Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) introduced resolutions of disapproval in both the House of Representatives and the Senate in order to strike down the rule.

Franklin told Fox News: “We don’t coparent with the federal government. The USDA does not have the authority to impose LGBTQ ideology and dangerous social experiments like shared bathrooms and locker rooms on local schools.”

The department insisted that it would not be cutting funding for schools, but its Republican critics pointed out that under the change, any school that refused to allow male students who identified as female to use the women’s restroom or to participate in female sports could be labeled discriminatory and be cut off from receiving funding.
