The Biden administration has sunk to a new low in its anti-gun crusade, reportedly withholding funds from schools that have hunting or archery programs as part of their curriculum.
Fox News is reporting the administration “is blocking key federal funding earmarked under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) of 1965 for schools with hunting and archery programs. This is allegedly happening because the administration may be “misinterpreting” provisions in the ESEA and last year’s Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA), as suggested by Texas Sen. John Cornyn and Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, both Republicans.
While we appreciate the diplomacy exhibited by Senators Cornyn and Tillis, we’re not convinced the Biden administration is making an innocent mistake here. Quite the opposite, in fact. This appears to be just another manifestation of Joe Biden’s crusade against anything promoting a positive approach to firearms, especially if it is taught in elementary and secondary schools, where young people can learn about genuine firearms safety, and perhaps prevent a tragedy.
We’re joining our friends at the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) and Safari Club International (SCI) in raising alarms because this appears to be just one more attack on the Second Amendment by the Biden administration. Instead of confining his hostility to the grown men and women of the outdoors and the larger shooting community, now the strategy includes depriving youngsters of opportunities to learn valuable life skills.
Maybe if Biden’s son Hunter had enjoyed such an opportunity as a youngster, he might have known better than to do something that landed him in court.
Having watched Joe Biden throughout his political career, embracing every gun control measure to come along, this was almost predictable. History has demonstrated that if there’s a way to impair any positive firearms program, he will find it.

“misinterpreting” my foot – slow joe doesn’t take actions like this without intentional malice.
We should have shooting ranges at all High Schools… Highly Recommended
“his is allegedly happening because the administration may be “misinterpreting” provisions in the ESEA and last year’s Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA).” poppy cock. there is no misinterpretation. dems and the biden admin have shown they do not care any law they disagree with. they will either ignore it or update it to fit their narrative.
