WASHINGTON (TNND) -- A recent survey has revealed that a significant majority of parents oppose the participation of biological males in girls' sports teams and support reducing or eliminating the Department of Education. The survey found that 78% of parents completely oppose biological boys competing in girls' sports, with 62% strongly opposing it.
Erica Sams, with "Parents Defending Education," discussed the findings from a poll her group conducted with The National News Desk's Jan Jeffcoat Friday morning, saying, "We definitely have known for a while that these numbers were pretty overwhelming in the direction of being against much of this. And again, like for the many of us with our ear close to the ground kind of had a sense that parents were breaking for Trump because of some of these issues."
Sams noted that the strongest opposition to gender policies came from Black parents, highlighting the significance of these numbers as the Biden-Harris administration attempts to rewrite Title IX. She said, "This is just a total rebuke from parents across the board."
The survey also indicated that a majority of Democratic parents, along with Republicans and independents, oppose these gender policies. Sams added, "Even larger numbers disagreed that schools should help a child change their gender identity without their parents being notified."
Additionally, 52% of parents agreed with reducing the size and influence of the U.S. Department of Education. A striking 90% of parents believe schools should focus on core subjects like math, reading, writing, science, and social studies to improve education quality in America.
Sams emphasized the importance of these findings, stating, "Parents are flaming mad right now all across the country."
