The contradiction in the article actually points out why the withholding of fed funds is unconstitutional - They are withholding all fed funds to schools that have those programs and classes, but they are not federally funded. Those classes have ZERO actual connection to federal funds. This is a classic example of ultra vires EO's and agency actions. Strictly Illegal.

Don’t let your kids grow up to be Hunters.

Do you remember how FedGov strong-armed the states into setting the 55 mph speed limit and raising the drinking age to 21? Comply or we withhold road funding. (Of course we’ll continue to collect Federal gasoline taxes because we can).

Was that ever declared unconstitutional?

Here’s why the DOE will never be eliminated:

"It's a negative for children. As a former educator of 30-plus years, I was always trying to find a way to engage students," Tommy Floyd, the president of the National Archery in the Schools Program, told Fox News Digital in an interview. "In many communities, it's a shooting sport, and the skills from shooting sports, that help young people grow to be responsible adults. They also benefit from relationships with role models."

You see … Tommy Floyd is part of the problem, and there are millions of Tommy Floyds across the nation.

This guy never uttered a peep when his program was getting money shoveled to it under the 1965 law that funded these stupid programs in schools. And as a “former educator” he was the biggest fan of the DOE.

He never gave a damn about the shooting and archery. He just wanted the government money.

Smoking crack or meth does not make you fall asleep, smoking heroin/fentanyl does. We have all been gaslighted that it was just cocaine/crack.

No, because the speed limit and the drinking age are related to FHWA Highway funding by the Feds. Granted, the tie to the drinking age is weak, but the fed gov does fund some stop drunk driving programs

For decades, gun control maniacs implied hunting was OK, no more I guess.

The federal government should not be funding local schools for any reason.

“1.3 million students from nearly 9,000 schools across 49 states are enrolled in archery courses.”

Wow, I’m surprised at that number.

“Some of those schools have already canceled plans to include archery or hunting education courses in their curriculum due to the Education Department guidance.”

“Guidance” — every school in America should tell these DOE bastards to Eff Off. That whole stinking department needs to be razed and heads out on pikes.

They have ZERO qualifications to provide “guidance” to our schools.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

The government's relentless push to disarm us.
