Children cannot be required to recite the Pledge of Allegiance
Guest Opinion//March 31, 2023//[read_meter]
Lawmakers just can’t give up the imposition of group think. Rep. Barbara Parker, R-Mesa, has introduced HB2523 that would require school children in first through 12th grades to recite the Pledge of Allegiance every day. Under current law, they may if they like; this change would require they do so unless their parents write an excuse or if the student is 18 and opts out. It covers district public schools and charter, not private, parochial or homeschools. I guess we don’t care if those kids are patriotic? (Photo by Pexels)
