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, Clarice Schillinger, recent Lieutenant Governor candidate and founder of Keeping Kids in School PA, tells Giordano about her plans moving forward, to bring Keeping Kids in School to Washington to push for national change.
Then, Dom welcomes Congressman Jeff Van Drew in for a Memorial Day check-in to discuss a bill he’s proposing to try and strengthen security in schools. First, Dom asks for the Congressman’s overall thoughts on the 2nd Amendment, with Van Drew explaining the importance of the right to bear arms and why it’s a necessity for the United States of America. Then, Giordano and Van Drew discuss solutions for an epidemic of violence in schools, with Van Drew expressing lament over the amount of money dedicated to foreign affairs rather than keeping kids safe in schools.
