"At the Veterans' Plaza at Milpitas City Hall, there's a sign that reads: LEST WE FORGET THE COURAGE, HONOR, AND SACRIFICE OF OTHERS FOR OUR FREEDOM. The late David McCullough advised that we should never, ever take for granted the blessings of American life. So true. President Ronald Reagan said, We are forever indebted to those who have given their lives that we might be free."
"I thank the California teachers and parents who have sued to block a law passed in October establishing a new Office of Civil Rights to protect Jewish students from antisemitism. The new law doesn't define antisemitism and leaves teachers in fear of punishment if they teach facts about Israel or Zionism that a state bureaucrat considers antisemitic. This setup will suppress teachers' freedom of speech and students' right to learn."
At the Veterans' Plaza at Milpitas City Hall, a sign declares LEST WE FORGET THE COURAGE, HONOR, AND SACRIFICE OF OTHERS FOR OUR FREEDOM. One letter urges gratitude for veterans, cites David McCullough's warning not to take American blessings for granted, and quotes Ronald Reagan about indebtedness to those who died for freedom. A separate letter thanks teachers and parents who sued to block a new California law establishing an Office of Civil Rights to protect Jewish students, argues the law fails to define antisemitism, warns it could punish teachers for teaching facts about Israel or Zionism, and urges invalidation to protect free speech and education.
