USPIE Comprehensive Sexuality Education Position Statement
- By USPIE
A primary mission of United States Parents Involved in Education (USPIE) is to return control of education to parents and local communities. We are alarmed by the expanded use of inappropriate Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE), in K-12 public schools.

- By Eagle Forum
Editor’s Note: Our schools have become ground zero for “gender inclusive” guerrilla warfare, and impressionable children will suffer the collateral damage. The National Education Association, supposedly the champion of all that is good for students, is a primary proponent of these efforts. Parents must understand and take action before it’s too late.

This week the National Education Association is holding its annual meetingin Houston, Texas. The NEA describes itself as “America’s largest professional employees association” as it represents more than 3 million educators.
