(Townhall)—Reactions began pouring in on Friday following the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Mahmoud v. Taylor, a case surrounding parental rights in public education.
As Townhall covered, the high court ruled 6-3 in favor of parents who wish to withdraw their children from “woke” LGBTQ+ lessons in schools. The case surrounded a controversial policy in Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) in Maryland. Several parents wanted the option to opt their children out of curriculum with LGBTQ+ themes. The parents wanted this option due to their religious beliefs.
However, the school system did not allow the parents to opt their children out of these lessons. As a result, the parents, who hold religious objections to the learning materials, sued the school system, arguing that the policy infringes on their First Amendment rights.
In a video statement, US Secretary of Education Linda McMahon called the decision a “major win for religious liberty and parental rights.”
“The court rightfully held that schools cannot shut parents out or disregard their religious obligations to their children,” she added. “We are proud to see parents – not bureaucrats – reclaiming their role in raising their children according to their sincerely held religious beliefs.”
