Move over legislators

By John Carver, Decorah

And somewhere out of the political wilderness comes the cry that our Iowa higher education facilities are “left leaning.” And the voice continues to say that if it continues, it will be unsettling. Voting will be unduly influenced.

Excuuuuuuuse me, Republicans have been in power long enough to disprove that. As a matter of fact, their legislation has created enough laws — including amending the constitution — and to maintain sympathies, even if they lose an election.

Crushing DEI, crushing our history, crushing books, privatizing education with public money — by the way, private accountability on this needs to be heard — and with no end in sight. Who are they trying to kid? We’re not asleep at the switch.

We have learned, disciplined, state-certified educators whose job it is to teach. Move out of the way and let them lead.
