<p>Last week, <strong>Ryan Walters</strong>, the Oklahoma superintendent for public instruction, made national news for announcing that, effective immediately, his state’s teacher candidates (especially from such places as California and New York) will now be required to take and pass an “America First” test before they will be considered for employment in Oklahoma’s public schools. As you can imagine, the teachers unions and establishment elites have lost their ever-loving minds over this.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/08/teaching-schoolchildren-what-it-means-to-be-an-american/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Dr. Everett Piper</em></p>
<p>Recently another major story in the world of education came from Oklahoma, where <strong>Ryan Walters</strong>, the state superintendent of public instruction, is being demonized by the mainstream media for the termination of more than 80 employees from the Sooner State’s Department of Education.</p>
<p>To this news, we should all say: “Good! Thank you, Mr. Walters. In fact, if you could shut down the entire department, we’d all be better off.”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/09/schools-would-be-better-off-without-a-dept-of-ed/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
