House GOP Introduces Bills to Combat Critical Race Theory

Two bills will be introduced to counter critical race theory at the federal level, Rep. Dan Bishop (R-N.C.) announced with some GOP House members at a press conference in front of the Capitol on Wednesday.

One bill is Combat Racist Training in the Military Act, a House companion bill to the bill introduced by Senator Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) in the Senate. The bill prohibits the United States military from promoting critical race theory.

The second bill is called Stop Critical Race Theory Act. Bishop called it โ€œthe most comprehensive legislationโ€ to restrict the spread of the quasi-Marxist ideology.

The bill would codify an executive order by former President Donald Trump signed last year, which banned critical race theory from federal agency training. The bill would also ban any federal funds from being used to promote critical race theory.

Both bills will have 31 co-sponsors when introduced, Bishop said.

โ€œCritical Race Theory is a divisive ideology that threatens to poison the American psyche,โ€ Bishop said during the conference. โ€œThe roots of this ideology are unmistakable. Just as Karl Marx advocated a social critical ethic of societal classismโ€”oppressor versus oppressedโ€”this is Neo Marxist ideology, Cultural Marxism masquerading as history and designed to mislead.โ€

Critical race theory redefines Americaโ€™s history as a struggle between โ€œoppressorsโ€ (white people) and the โ€œoppressedโ€ (everybody else), as was done with Marxismโ€™s reduction of human history to a struggle between the โ€œbourgeoisieโ€ and the โ€œproletariat.โ€ It labels institutions that emerged in majority-white societies as โ€œsystemicallyโ€ or โ€œstructurallyโ€ racist.

โ€œCancel culture is one of its weapons; mob-like attacks on free expression, intimidation. For the sake of our childrenโ€™s future, we must stop this effort to cancel the truth of our founding,โ€ Bishop continued.

Former Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)ย Russ Voughtย gave three examples of how critical race theory impacts the country at the press conference.
