Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed a co-founder of Moms for Liberty, a āparental rightsā group that has sought to take over school boards in multiple states, to the Florida Commission on Ethics on Wednesday.
Tina Descovich was named to the nine-member, Tallahassee-based commission, which investigates alleged breaches of public trust by elected and appointed officials, as well as state employees.
The groupās support for school choice and the āfundamental rights of parentsā to direct their childrenās education has also drawn allies such as the conservative Heritage Foundation.
Moms for Liberty has been labeled an āextremistā organization by the Southern Poverty Law Center for allegedly harassing community members, advancing anti-LGBTQ+ misinformation and fighting to scrub diverse and inclusive material from lesson plans.
I mean, that, and there are people like me who voted for them for years for reproductive rights reasons. If you canāt even get a right to birth control codified in the 20 years Iāve been voting, you arenāt effective enough to run the country. Thing is, itās a candidateās job to excite voters, and a partyās job to get them to the polls. The only duty a voter has is to vote. Besides, if the Dems actually gave a shit about the left voting for them, their policy would probably not be alienating leftist voters by blaming them every time the Dems fail.
