'Children Belong to the Parents': Texas Education Board Member Julie Pickren

Texas State Board of Education member Julie Pickren outlines the two schools of thought on child "ownership": parents or government. Julie shares her experience in Texas, where she chaired the Parental Rights Committee, resulting in a 75-page document codifying parental rights into law. She also shares her perspective on the federal government's role in education, arguing that the U.S. Department of Education primarily functions as a funding mechanism rather than an educational institution. She discusses proposals to redistribute education-related responsibilities to agencies such as Health and Human Services and the Department of Justice, and explains why she believes this restructuring would improve services for students, parents, and communities. -- 📺 Watch NTD News 24/7 on cable, broadcast, and streaming: https://www.ntd.com/watch -- 🧶More NTD Programs: https://www.ntd.com/programs?utm_source=YouTube&utm_medium=SocialM -- 🇺🇸 Stay updated with breaking news, special reports, and LIVE COVERAGE on NTD: https://ept.ms/NTDlive_ -- 🔵Sign up for our newsletter to stay informed with NTD News. 👉https://www.ntd.com/newsletter.htm?utm_source=YouTube.
