Readin' Writin' and Reason | 101

Dom Giordano, WPHT host and former teacher, has dedicated much of his daily show toward parents who are taking it into their own hands to push back against school boards that have a negative impact on their children. This has culminated in a weekly podcast on education, Readin', Writin', and Reason, which has allowed wonderful relationships to develop between Giordano, educators, and parents throughout the country who are speaking out against overbearing school boards.

First, Dom welcomes in friend-of-the-show Megan Brock, an advocate for parental rights, and Vicki Flannery, Chapter Chair for Montgomery County’s chapter of Moms for Liberty, a group of parents hoping to bring power back to the hands of parents in schools. Last week, Dom told listeners that the Downtown Marriott here in Philadelphia is under fire by a hyper-Progressive group for hosting the national Moms for Liberty conference. Brock and Flannery take us inside the event, telling what exactly the group is hoping to bring Philadelphia, and telling they chose Philadelphia due to the City being the birthplace of liberty. Also, Flannery and Brock preview what to expect at the conference, and send listeners to MomsForLiberty.org.

Then, Dom welcomes in New Jersey State Senator Holly Schepisi who has some concerning news about State edicts around Coronavirus. Schepisi reveals that the Murphy administration is considering new COVID vaccine requirements for school children, running counter to suggestions by the Department of Health. Schepisi takes us through meetings held and things said behind the scenes that point to a requirement of students to receive that vaccine, which concerns both Giordano and Schepisi, with the Senator laying forth the negative implications of such a demand. Schepisi tells listeners what they can do to push back against such a requirement, and tells how she hopes to prevent this from taking effect in New Jersey.
