Don't Let the Federal Government Regulate Your Reading

Not one country's freedom and liberty has ever been increased by banning books. H.R. 7661 threatens that principle.

If you believe that Americans should choose their own books, that families and communities should guide education without federal coercion, and that freedom of expression must be protected, add your name today. Please join us and stand up for the right to read.

Support the Right to Read in the United States | EveryLibrary Action

Senator Jack Reed (RI) and Representative Adelita Grijalva (AZ-07) have introduced the Right to Read Act (H.R.6640 / S.3365), landmark legislation that invests in school libraries, strengthens literacy, and defends students' freedom to read.

A strong bill is only the first step. Congress needs to hear that the public expects action.

When I was in school, teachers,, parents, librarians--grown-ups in general--were always encouraging students to read more, go to the library!

Now, students in sixth through 12th grade in the New Braunfels Independent School District in Texas are currently unable to visit their school libraries or check out books.

Please join me in opposing this ill-considered policy via EveryLibrary.

A dangerous censorship campaign is underway at Department of Defense schools, targeting books about race, gender, LGBTQ+ identities, and American history.

Hundreds of books have already been banned, and programs supporting student identity are being shut down.

Sign the petition to support H.R.5527 and stop the DoDEA book bans in schools on military bases in the US and abroad.
