This Week – Now in Session & Parental Rights II
The legislative session in now in session. What is this going to mean for every day Oregonians? The democrats lost seats in the house and senate. Will they be a little more contrite and easier to work with? Or will it be damn the voters, full steamrollers ahead?
We welcome Senator Dennis Linthicum on to discuss what it will be like now that there are fewer democrats in the legislature. Three fewer in the house, and one fewer in the senate. And very nearly three fewer in the senate, which would have made a 15-15 tie. Have democrats leaned anything from the election? Or is it full steamrollers ahead.
Tune in to find out the democrats plans and schemes as the republicans try to move common sense bills forward.

Parents Rights: The Legal Side
It’s no longer a secret: woke teachers are pulling out all the stops to indoctrinate kids. They’re no longer hiding it. Talking even to very young children about adult matters and sex and their political ideology. Worse, woke teachers and school administrators will “protect” a child from their own parents’ views and beliefs. And even far worse, convince children they have been born into a “the wrong body” and offer them puberty-blocking drugs or help them with gender reassignment surgery.
As a followup to last week’s show, we bring Ernie Trakas, the Senior Litigation Counsel for the Child & Parental Rights Campaign. He is a legal expert helping parents who may be at the butting heads stage (or worse) with their child’s schools. What rights do parents have?
Well, if you listen to the schools, they’ll tell you the law is on their side. Especially Title IX. But, as with so much of what the Left does, it turns out the schools are putting on a facade. tune in to hear what the Supreme Court of the United States has to say. And why it will be the place where woke goes to die.
Parental Rights: What to do if Push comes to Lawsuit
If push comes to shove, and schools continue to push don’t wait. Contact a public-interest law firm like Child and Parental Rights Campaign or one similar. Don’t wait. The longer the problem is allowed to continue it will get worse. Don’t give them your silent consent by not putting a stop to it the longer it goes on.
Do you need legal help to defend your parental rights? Head to Child & Parent Rights Campaign for resources or to just talk to someone. Don’t worry when you can act! But don’t wait.
In the meantime, document everything. Keep emails. Write things down. Phone calls — when, and what was discussed. And then send them an email recapping the conversation. You need to create a paper trail. Think of it as an evidence trail.
And the added benefit is that by emailing them and getting things in writing, you send the signal that you’re a professional and know what to do. Which means they will take you seriously.
But if you don’t know what to do, get in touch right now with an attorney.
