IL using COVID funds to teach CRT lessons

April 29, 2022

Fox News reports Illinois is using $5.1 billion in COVID relief money to teach students Critical Race Theory.

Illinois is one of a handful of states “that have used or plan to use billions of dollars in ARP funding for their state education departments to implement certain tenets of CRT.”

NRCC Comment: “Illinois children are being taught Critical Race Theory because Sean Casten, Marie Newman, Bill Foster, and Lauren Underwood voted for Democrats’ corrupt socialist stimulus.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Courtney Parella
