A coalition of pro-life organizations is countering California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) multi-state “blasphemous” abortion billboard campaign with signs of their own.
“They are not giving me any accommodation at all, except for the district policy of not punishing students for protesting,” Gillespie said in a statement prior to the event. “That is not the accommodation that I asked for; I asked for the same accommodation as the anti-gun protest, that teachers would be flexible in their lesson planning, and also for the availability of equipment that the anti-gun protestors were allowed to use.”
“This is a blatant case of content discrimination and arbitrary favoritism,” Snyder said in a statement. “Rocklin High School’s decision treats the Pro-life Walkout differently than the way the school treated the gun walkout, which violates the First Amendment and the Equal Protection rights of every student participating in the Pro-life walkout.”
