State Rep. James DeSana | Michigan House Republicans
In a heartfelt letter addressed to Michigan homeschooling families, James DeSana, a Catholic Home School Father of 8 children and a representative in the House of Representatives, expressed his unwavering support for the rights of parents to educate their children as they see fit. DeSana firmly believes that parents are the primary educators of their children, and the government should not interfere or regulate this fundamental right.
"For many families, homeschooling is a religious freedom issue, and any government action that might restrict or regulate this Constitutionally protected right is a clear violation of the 1st Amendment," DeSana stated.
He further emphasized that even in cases where homeschooling is utilized for non-religious purposes, he still firmly believes in the rights of individuals to liberty, as guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence. DeSana firmly opposes any attempt by the Federal Government, State Government, or local school boards to regulate or restrict a parent's right to educate their children.
"I will fight to defend Home Schooling Families and defend their Constitutional rights," DeSana affirmed. He pledged to work diligently to ensure that these rights are not usurped or restricted by any legislative, executive, or judicial action.
As the debate surrounding homeschooling continues, with some advocating for stricter regulations and oversight, DeSana's unwavering support for homeschooling families and their rights provides reassurance to those who have chosen this educational path for their children.
