From there, you will be given the names of the Senators for your state, followed by their phone number, contact form, and address. U.S. House Members Directory: https://www.house.gov/representatives You will be find the representatives organized by state, followed by their phone number. We need everyone to make their voices heard! Unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats in the Department of Education have failed to recognize Article I, Section 1 of the United States Constitution in that “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and a House of Representatives.” Laws are passed by Congress, which is a direct representation of YOUR VOICE in our Constitutional Republic. Unfortunately, on July 12, 2022, the Department of Education bypassed our constitution and YOUR VOICE by publishing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“NPRM”) titled Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance. Since that time, CDF has sounded the alarm, providing parents, citizens, and local school districts with information germane to this NPRM, and how it would affect governance, local education and sporting fairness, and the personal privacy of children. The finalized rule is a direct assault on our Constitution by amending Title IX as passed by Congress to distort the definition of “sex” as understood throughout all recorded history to now include “gender identity.” The damage this unconstitutional act will have on every public school in the United States cannot be understated. Parental rights, your children’s safety and privacy, and fairness of educational programs are now in jeopardy. Your direct voice, through your elected representative, has been hijacked by a radical agenda with a rule that lacks any support in the plain text of the law, checks and balances in the branches of the federal government, and the congressional history and intent behind Title IX to protect equal opportunity for girls and women. Now is the time to reclaim your voice. Citizens of all 50 states, of all backgrounds and political affiliations, still have a voice to derail this radical rule. A Joint Resolution of Disapproval under the Congressional Review Act, or CRA, can disapprove the Department of Education’s final rule and MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD as intended by the Constitution of the United States. This little-known oversight tool by Congress can overturn this radical final rule created in Washington DC that WILL AFFECT your local school, your children’s privacy and safety, and restore the Constitutional meaning behind checks and balances. For this radical Department of Education rule, any member of Congress in the House of Representatives or U.S. Senate can introduce a joint resolution disapproving of an agency’s final rule once it is submitted. A simple majority in both the U.S. House and Senate is needed to pass the resolution. Where does your elected representative stand? No matter the political party affiliation, you have a direct interest in the public stance your elected congressional representative has on radical rules being pushed on every public school in the United States. This rule bypasses their legislative powers, and your VOICE! SHARE THIS WITH AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN. |
