GOP lawmakers in several states have called for defunding the American Library Association because of Emily Drabinski's identity and political beliefs.
From early 2023, but I didn't hear about it at the time.
Libraries are one of the few remaining public assets in the 'states that pretty universally work well, and I think the right's acute knowledge of that partially contributes to them getting rolled into this latest wave of attacks on the school system/academics at large. Makes sticking up for them all the more important.
