Democrats are launching an effort to force the nation’s schools to include “climate literacy” requirements even as they pay no mind to if kids can read, do math, or if they know anything history or science.

The clue to this quiet campaign is seen n the Democrat Party platform where this “climate literacy” requirement is laid out for all to see.

“We will equip students with the knowledge and skills to understand complex scientific issues, counter the rising tide of denialism by promoting environmental and climate literacy, and reverse the Trump Administration’s cuts to the National Environmental Education Act,” the platform tells the Democrat faithful.

But, even as Democrats are worried about indoctrinating kids on their mythical climate agenda, they aren’t interested at all in making sure Johnny can read. Average reading scores for fourth and eighth grade students, for instance, fell three points over scores in 2019, according to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP).

Per the Daily Caller:

Less than 50% of all fourth grade students were able to read at or above the standard for proficiency in 2022, with only 17% of black students and 21% of Latino pupils meeting the mark, according to the NAEP.

The U.S. is seeing “staggering numbers of children, especially children of color and children from low-income backgrounds, without fundamental literacy skills,” Allison Socol, the vice president of policy, practice and research for the Education Trust, wrote earlier this year.

NAEP data “consistently” demonstrates that about two in every three American students cannot read proficiently, and about 40% of all students are effectively non-readers, according to an analysis published by Scientific American in September 2023.

Democrats don’t care about education and they don’t care about your kids, America.

All they want is to see kids graduated from school as mind-numbed robots to dutifully vote to impose the Democrat Party’s destructive agenda on this nation.
