New Hampshire School Boards Are Dumping The NSBA After It Called Parents ‘Domestic Terrorists’
- The New Hampshire School Boards Association chapter is the latest state-level organization to withdraw from the National School Boards Association.
- The group cited the National School Boards Association’s (NSBA) actions that “have made our continued membership untenable.”
- Despite the NSBA’s apology, state members have continued to revoke their memberships and distance themselves from the national organization.
The New Hampshire School Boards Association chapter is the latest state-level organization to withdraw its membership from the National School Boards Association.
The New Hampshire School Boards Association (NHSBA) sent out a letter to its members on Thursday that informed them of its plans “to withdraw its membership from the National School Boards Association, effective immediately.” The group cited the National School Boards Association’s (NSBA) actions that “have made our continued membership untenable.”
“NHSBA is finalizing its formal letter to the National School Boards Association relative to our withdrawal,” the email continued. “We will share that letter with membership as soon as possible.”
New Hampshire joins four other states, Louisiana, Missouri, Ohio and Pennsylvania that have withdrawn their membership from the NSBA over its Sept. 29 letter that asked President Joe Biden’s administration to use statutes such as the PATRIOT Act to stop threats and violence in public schools toward school board members over actions that could be “the equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes.”
On Oct 4., Merrick Garland’s Justice Department responded with a memorandum that called on the FBI to “use its authority” against parents who threaten or use violence against public school officials, citing a “disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence against school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff.”
The NSBA was in communication with the White House over its letter in the lead up to its Sept. 29 release, according to emails obtained by Parents Defending Education (PDE). The White House staff “requested additional information on some of the specific threats” of violence directed at public schools and school board members.
In response, the NSBA sent out a memorandum apologizing to its state members for the letter and the manner in which it was published on Oct. 22.
“On behalf of the NSBA, we regret and apologize for the letter,” the letter read. “To be clear, the safety of school board members, other public school officials and educators, and students is our top priority, and there remains important work to be done on this issue. We apologize also for the strain and stress this situation has caused you and your organizations.”
Despite the NSBA’s apology, state members have continued to revoke their memberships and distance themselves from the national organization.
In a letter to NSBA’s Interim Executive Director and CEO Chip Slaven and President Viola Garcia, the Ohio School Boards Association said its “decision to terminate membership and affiliation with the NSBA is a direct result of the letter sent by you to President Joe Biden late last month.”
The 23 states that have distanced themselves from the NSBA are Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Wyoming, according to a list compiled by PDE.
Many states said they are “reevaluating the benefits of membership with the NSBA” because they were not consulted on the letter it sent to Biden.
Delaware said it has received “NO reports of violence or threats of violence,” Florida said it will “both encourage and welcome parents” and Georgia said it did “not seek the involvement of federal law enforcement,” according to PDE’s research.
The New Hampshire School Boards Association did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Our healthcare system is about to experience a tsunami! Potential side effects of jabs include chronic inflammation, because the vaccine continuously stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies. Other concerns include the possible integration of plasmid DNA into the body’s host genome, resulting in mutations, problems with DNA replication, triggering of autoimmune responses, and activation of cancer-causing genes. Alternative COVID cures exist. Ivermectin is one of them. While Ivermectin is very effective curing COVID symptoms, it has also been shown to eliminate certain cancers. Do not get the poison jab. Get Ivermectin https://health.p0l.org
