Religion does not belong in our schools—keep it out! The money from the Federal Government is for public education—not for home schooling and private schools! Use the money for what it is earmarked for now—not private or religious purposes.

Note that there is an inverse correlation between education and voting republican. Rhodes is looking out for the party. The less education our kids get, the better for republicans.

I doubt very much that you or most other South Dakota Republicans could explain the history of Critical Race Theory and articulate what it actually means or give the history of DEI and honestly tally how much it has benefited South Dakotans -- especially women of all colors; or give a lucid definition of what "woke" means. You throw the words around as yet another way to manipulate the ignorant. Once again, the Republican Party's mission is to destroy rather than to build.
