By the time this election rolled around, Moms for Liberty seemed to have already realized their brand had become poisonous. As the Daily Beast reported, “In 2021, Moms for Liberty claimed credit for 33 seats in Bucks County,” but in this election cycle, the group “endorsed only a single candidate in the county.” The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that some Republican candidates wanted the group to keep its distance, fearful of the taint. And that was my sense of things in the Pennridge district this fall. School board members who had links to Moms for Liberty tried to downplay it and ended up getting outed by investigators from the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).
There were two races in my local school district that I just voted on. I don’t even have kids of my own, but it’s important to me that the next generation gets the best education possible. Since I didn’t know any of the candidates, I was digging up their backgrounds and endorsements and a couple of them were proudly affiliated with “Moms for Liberty”…and that is an automatic ‘nope’ from me. That group is a toxin with a carefully chose name to sound reasonable. They aren’t.
