Biden admin withholding key funding for schools with hunting, archery programs

What is it with you guys and drag queens? Do they scare you?

Anyway, the Biden administration is adhering to the letter of the law:

The legislation included an amendment to an ESEA subsection listing prohibited uses for federal school funding. That amendment prohibits ESEA funds from helping provide any person with a dangerous weapon or to provide "training in the use of a dangerous weapon."

Hunting and archery clearly provide "training in the use of a dangerous weapon" which is prohibited of funding.

Here's the amendment:

§7906. Prohibited uses of funds
No funds under this chapter may be used-

(1) for construction, renovation, or repair of any school facility, except as authorized under this chapter;

(2) for transportation unless otherwise authorized under this chapter;

(3) to develop or distribute materials, or operate programs or courses of instruction directed at youth, that are designed to promote or encourage sexual activity, whether homosexual or heterosexual;

(4) to distribute or to aid in the distribution by any organization of legally obscene materials to minors on school grounds;

(5) to provide sex education or HIV-prevention education in schools unless that instruction is age appropriate and includes the health benefits of abstinence;

(6) to operate a program of contraceptive distribution in schools; or

(7) for the provision to any person of a dangerous weapon, as defined in section 930(g)(2) of title 18, or training in the use of a dangerous weapon.

So if the Biden administration adheres to the letter of the law, you complain that it violates the spirit of the law. But if the Biden administration were to follow the spirit of the law, you'd complain that it violates the letter of the law.

The solution? Write clearer laws.
