Lawmakers From Both Parties Oppose Biden Administration for Targeting Schools With Hunting and Archery Programs

Back in July, it was revealed that the Biden administration is withholding certain funding from schools that offer hunting and archery programs.

This is sparking backlash from members of both parties.

FOX News reports:

Republicans, Democrats unite to oppose Biden admin’s crackdown on hunting, archery

Senate Republicans and Democrats fired off two letters late Tuesday in opposition of the Biden administration’s crackdown on school hunting education and archery programs nationwide.

The letters, led by Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, stated that the Department of Education misinterpreted legislation regarding funding for such programs and called on Senate Appropriations Committee leaders to restore funding. The first letter to Education Secretary Miguel Cardona was signed by nine Republicans and nine Democrats, while the second to Appropriations leadership was signed by six Republicans and 11 Democrats.

“Unfortunately, and contrary to Congressional intent, the Department of Education has misinterpreted the language to exclude certain educational activities from receiving federal resources,” Cornyn and 17 other lawmakers wrote to Cardona…

“This is concerning because of the important role these enrichment programs can play in students’ lives,” they continued. “Archery is an inclusive extracurricular activity that empowers students from all backgrounds to learn a sport and compete. Hunter safety classes and programs play an important role in teaching safety, wildlife management, landowner relations and personal responsibility to students.”

According to Senator John Cornyn’s Senate website, these are the lawmakers who joined this effort:

Senators Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ), Thom Tillis (R-NC), Bob Casey (D-PA), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Joni Ernst (R-IA), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Roger Wicker (R-MS), Martin Heinrich (D-NM), Mitt Romney (R-UT), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Susan Collins (R-ME), Mark Kelly (D-AZ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and Joe Manchin (D-WV) signed the letter.

There aren’t many issues that get bipartisan support in the Senate these days.

It just goes to show how out of touch the Biden administration is with the country.

Bill Maher Knocks the Hollywood Writer Strike: ‘They Kind of Believe That You’re Owed a Living’ (VIDEO)

Bill Maher has been very red-pilled lately.

On a recent podcast with comedian Jim Gaffigan, Maher knocked the Hollywood writers who are currently on strike, saying that they believe they are owed a living.

He stresses that he likes writers, including the writers on his own show, but calls them out for being tribal on politics and for not realizing that show business is a sink or swim industry where not everyone makes it.

Bill Maher: Striking Hollywood Writers Not Owed a Living Wage

Speaking with fellow comedian Jim Gaffigan on the Club Random podcast, Maher, whose own show Real Time on HBO was shut down due to the strike, felt that the writers had some “kooky” requests.

“They’re asking for a lot of things that are, like, kooky,” Maher said. “What I find objectionable about the philosophy of the strike [is] it seems to be, they have really morphed a long way from 2007’s strike, where they kind of believe that you’re owed a living as a writer, and you’re not. This is show business. This is the make-or-miss league.”…

“I feel for my writers. I love my writers. I’m one of my writers. But there’s a big other side to it,” Mahersaid. “And a lot of people are being hurt besides them — a lot of people who don’t make as much money as them in this bipartisan world we have where you’re just in one camp or the other, there’s no in between.”

“You’re either for the strike like they’re fucking Che Guevara out there, you know, like, this is Cesar Chavez’s lettuce picking strike — or you’re with Trump. There’s no difference — there’s only two camps. And it’s much more complicated than that,” he continued.

He loves his writers, he just doesn’t think they deserve a living wage. 👀

The longer this strike goes on, the higher the chances that it could actually destroy Hollywood as we know it.

Not everyone thinks that’s a bad thing.
