(The Center Square) – Red states lead in national education integrity ratings based on issues like parental rights, DEI, gender and sexuality policies and more, while blue states generally rank toward the bottom, a new report from Defending Education shows.

Director of Government Affairs at Defending Education Dr. Terry Stoops told The Center Square: “If your state is at the top of Defending Education’s rankings, congratulations! You live in a state with public school policies that prioritize sound academics over shameless antics.”
