Summary
Esther Wickham hosts The Center Square Daily, a review of some of the top headlines concerning taxpayers across the country. On today’s show, we examine concerns over taxpayer dollars in the San Francisco Unified School District being used for Pride Month events and LGBTQ+ materials. What supporters call inclusion, critics say is a focus on the wrong things as student test scores continue to drop. The Center Square’s Andrew Rice joins us to break down major movement in Congress on the first Farm Bill since 2018, efforts to reauthorize FISA, and the fight over DHS funding. With these high-stakes bills facing hurdles and awaiting House debate at the time of recording, we look at what’s at stake for taxpayers and federal policy.
