“This movement needs to be actively discussed at the village hall and with BOE, officially. We can’t pretend that the woke religion isn’t a serious issue. It is very serious, ask residents in burned down, boarded up neighborhoods across the country.
While I respect individual parents’ decision to raise their kids in their own way, the village must vocally and unequivocally reflect values that vast majority of residents espouse. And I have no doubt that includes respect for the flag, freedom of speech and critical thinking.
All it takes for evil to prevail is for good people to do nothing.”

Old Bridge NJ , Mark Razzoli, Republican candidate for the House of Representatives in New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District today called on his opponent to withdraw her support for H.R. 5383, known as the “New Way Forward Act”.
