Christian groups successfully remove books from Pennsylvania school libraries.

Conservative parents and Christian advocacy groups in Pennsylvania's Central Bucks School District have succeeded in removing two books from school libraries under a new book-challenge policy enacted by the Republican majority on the school district's board of directors. The policy allows parents to challenge a book in a school library if it depicts implied or actual nudity or "sexual acts" and a committee of district staff then reviews it. The policy was written with advice and legal counsel from Christian non-profit organizations allied with the influential national group the Family Research Council, which advocates for religious freedoms and against LGBT rights.
