Parental Rights Bill Sparks Controversy in New Hampshire House

Conservative critics slammed Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after she called the Republican-sponsored Parents Bill of Rights "fascist" during a speech on the House floor. The bill aims to strengthen parents' involvement in their children's education, but AOC claimed it targets LGBT youth and censors racial content. Conservatives pushed back on social media, with some accusing AOC of not knowing the meaning of fascism and others defending the bill as protecting parental rights and limiting government overreach. Similar legislation has been passed in Republican-led states to battle CRT and DEI initiatives in education.
