Moms for Liberty has, in recent years, been a major player in America’s culture wars. The group has been behind the drastic increase in book ban attempts across the country, influenced local leaders to implement anti-LGBTQ+ policies, and railed against educators and others in communities, smearing them as child abusers. In 2023, Moms for Liberty held its annual convention in Pennsylvania, sparking widespread protests.
Now it has set its sights on the state’s many school boards.
There are 500 different districts spread over Pennsylvania’s 67 counties, and ahead of next week’s elections in the state, HuffPost found that Moms for Liberty has endorsed more than 50 candidates in 28 districts.
Rising to prominence in 2021, Moms for Liberty bills itself as a grassroots movement seeking to restore “parental rights” in government, and most notably the nation’s public school system. But it has since become a prominent fixture in Republican politics and been deemed an extremist group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Ariel Franchak, a public school teacher who founded the Pennsylvania chapter of the opposition group Stop Moms for Liberty on Facebook, felt she had no choice but to get involved in school politics once she saw Moms for Liberty’s agenda.
“I didn’t start getting into this until they started messing with the books, and trying to discriminate against the LGBTQ community and whitewashing history,” she told HuffPost. “They want to destroy everything good about schools.”

We need to find out who is behind the group, who funds it, and who directs it. Then go to the source and confront it.
I think they’re on our side of the issue.
Extremist? Perhaps the Huffington Post needs to look in the mirror. When the SHTF, these so called journalists better keep looking over their shoulders.
We don’t want schools talking our kids into chopping their ________ off.
Extremist
It means that men are going to have to give up their interests in order to take back the country. I suspect that professional sports was created as a distraction so we wouldn’t notice the country being stolen underneath our feet.
Extremist group — you know they’re bad!
“Parental Rights” — fear quotes! Insincerity! These evil people are trying to fool us!
Targeting school boards — Monsters! Who would do such a violent thing?
Gosh. Sometimes I think the media is trying to manipulate how I think about things ...
Anything or anyone who goes up against demonrat policy are called “extremists.”
I say the demonrat party is one big old “extremist” organization.
One man’s extremist is another man’s freedom fighter.
…
Nothing is EXTREME about Moms of Liberty. Sounds like someone’s hair is on fire, or they have been puffing too much canabis.
Huffpost got its marching orders from Biden’s FBI.
This is Huffpost badmouthing a pro-child parent’s right group......gag.
Ariel Franchak is the extremist.
Hmmm, so the FP calls a group of moms “extremist”.
Let’s ask them what they use to describe Hamas.
Answer: Mostly peaceful, I’m sure.
WOW!, Deranged, morally bankrupt, deviant, perverts, hell bent on grooming innocent children for their own personal sexual satisfaction.
“During COVID, she started bringing in data about COVID that was extremely biased, like saying masking was actually unhealthy,” Munson told HuffPost. “We can’t have four more like her.”
Idiot.
My local library ,and presumably all the staff, has a huge display promoting all the LGBTW+ insanity and denouncing “book banning”.
I am disgusted and told the librarian on duty there are two sexes and anyone having problems with that needs help.
They really don’t like having their tactics turned against them.
It’s extremist now for parents to protect their children?4
This ho Baptiste is a Haitian “refugee”. Another retarded idiot telling Americans how it’s going to be now that her ass is here.
“The group has been behind the drastic increase in book ban attempts across the country”
Trying to protect children from sexual perversion literature ... how terrible
