From November 03, 2022 post.
Washington, D.C.— Congressman Jeff Duncan led a letter with U.S. Representatives Nancy Mace, Ralph Norman, William Timmons, and Joe Wilson, to South Carolina Superintendent of Education Molly Spearman asking her to require all South Carolina public schools and school districts to immediately terminate any association with the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), and their state-based affiliate the South Carolina Association of School Psychologists, after the organization recently sent congressional offices a letter opposing H.R. 9197,
the Stop the Sexualization of Children Act.
“Explicit sexual content should not be a part of our children’s public education, and NASP’s desire to push this agenda raises concerns about their resources and training materials being used in our schools,” the lawmakers wrote in the letter. “We ask that your office require that all public schools and school districts terminate any association with NASP and their South Carolina affiliate, as well as ensure that none of their training materials or resources are being utilized in South Carolina’s schools.”

Dear Superintendent Spearman:
The National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) recently sent congressional offices a concerning letter in opposition to a recent piece of legislation introduced in the House of Representatives, H.R. 9197, the Stop the Sexualization of Children Act (Johnson-LA). Our offices have unfortunately confirmed that the South Carolina Association of School Psychologists endorses the national association’s position on this important legislation.
The Stop Sexualization of Children Act simply prohibits the federal government from implementing and funding any sexually-oriented program, event, or literature for children under the age of ten years old. NASP’s statement in opposition to this legislation makes egregious and dangerous claims in support of explicit sexual education and gender identity indoctrination to young children, and advocates for allowing children under the age of ten years old to be exposed to sexually explicit content.
Explicit sexual content should not be a part of our children’s public education, and NASP’s desire to push this agenda raises concerns about their resources and training materials being used in our schools.
We ask that your office require that all public schools and school districts terminate any association with NASP and their South Carolina affiliate, as well as ensure that none of their training materials or resources are being utilized in South Carolina’s schools.
