This is a different situation but bears some similarities: in many states, moderates and conservatives have tried to stop the increasing politicization of school instruction, usually with a left bias. In a few red states it’s the other way. But in many states, politically biased instruction gets packaged under labels like “social and emotional learning” (SEL) and the curriculum / materials come from random mostly unknown companies that are part of the grift that accompanies this activism. Parents and news organizations are often surprised when the school district or state refuses to answer questions and denies requests for transparency. It is usually made with claims of copyright protections preventing sharing of the materials that guide classroom instruction. Meanwhile, students lose time to ineffective instruction, fall behind in the global talent race, and some grifters get rich. The only way past those barriers to transparency, is a lawsuit.
