Temecula School Board President Faces Recall Amid Parental Rights Debate
Temecula Valley school board President Joseph Komrosky, a religious conservative, is narrowly losing a recall election according to early results. Komrosky, elected in 2022, has been a controversial figure for pushing policies that limit discussions on racism, disallow Pride flags, and require disclosure of students' gender identities to parents. His policies have led to ongoing litigation and state threats of fines. The recall could end a 2-2 stalemate on the board, which has been embroiled in broader culture war issues affecting education.
