"Scandal and Leadership Shifts Rattle Florida's Republican Party and Moms for Liberty"
Moms for Liberty, a conservative advocacy group known for its stance on education policies, is facing a decline in influence following a sex scandal involving one of its founders, Bridget Ziegler, and her husband. The group, which gained rapid prominence by opposing Covid-19 school closures, mask mandates, and promoting policies against LGBTQ+ content in schools, has seen a series of electoral defeats in 2023. Despite distancing from Ziegler, the group's future is uncertain as education issues become less central in Republican politics, and their tactics are increasingly met with opposition.
