A new petition is calling on New Jersey school board members to resign after they voted to remove holidays from the official school calendar Thursday.

The petition was created by a user with the name Thomas Tatem on Friday and demands Randolph Township school board members and Superintendent Jen Fano to "resign immediately," saying they "clearly do not have the best interests of our children in anything they do."

The board voted to start listing holidays, including religious and national holidays such as Thanksgiving and Memorial Day as "day off" on the school calendar after receiving backlash for renaming Columbus Day as Indigenous People's Day.

The petition will very likely fail, much like our “voting” did in November 2020. I have not seen *one* leftist politician punished in this country for a *long* time.

They need a lot more signatures, than just 200.

A total of 200 people are “taking action”. Alert the Press!

75 Million People took action last November and “crickets”, I mean Cicadas.

I suspect you have never heard Cicadas live.

The amount of noise those horny insects make is deafening.

“How many million people live in Joisey? 200 is not even a start.”

Nine million in the state and this is just one small school district.
But they made a change after 100 leftists made noise.

The American Resistance is awoke.

***..for renaming Columbus Day as Indigenous People’s Day.***

Trying to skim off an Italian’s day when the American Indian has two great days to call their own. No one can take them away from them.

August 10, 1680. The Pueblos kicked Spanish butt from Santa Fe clear back to El Paso del Norte.

June 25, 1876— Little Big Horn.

But n-o-0-o. They have to go after an Italian’s day.

Notice they called them a “day off”?

As Kammie did while dissing Memorial Day.

They never happen to do something. It’s always planned and coordinated.

Folks everywhere will either realize or not that they have to step up and step in to the stuff they took for granted even at the local level if they don’t want to end up living as slaves. I hope they realize it.

Hasn’t it been said they took this action because of pressure being brought to eliminate the Columbus Day holiday?
