Kamala Harris’s Attack on Parents

Source: Common Sense
by Paul Jacob

“Among the skeletons rattling around in presidential candidate Kamala Harris’s closet is her support — while San Francisco’s district attorney and while running for state attorney general — for a law to punish parents for their children’s absences from school. … One victim was Cheree Peoples, who was arrested and handcuffed in 2013 while still in her pajamas. ‘You would swear I had killed somebody.’ Her daughter Shayla had missed twenty days of school in the current school year. Cheree faced a possible penalty of $2,500 or a year in jail. Shayla has sickle cell anemia and required frequent hospitalization. Shayla’s mother fought the charges for a long time. Eventually, they were dropped. Harris bragged about the truancy program while being inaugurated as attorney general.” (10/15/24)
