Rep. Barry Moore leads Republican pushback against Democrat attack on parents' rights

July 15, 2026 Press Release Washington, D.C.- This week, Congressman Barry Moore (AL-01) led a Republican response letter responding to an effort by 68 House Democrats to oppose greater parental transparency and accountability in children’s programming. Rep. Moore’s letter, signed by 46 Republican Members of Congress and supported by Concerned Women for America, reaffirms that parents - not government bureaucrats or media companies - should have the final say over what their children watch. “The Left’s priorities are upside down. Sixty-eight House Democrats are choosing radical activists and woke corporations over the rights of parents by fighting against transparency and pushing their agenda onto children," said Congressman Barry Moore. "Parents - not Washington bureaucrats, media executives, or special interest groups - should decide what their children watch and what values are taught in their homes. I will always stand with parents and fight to protect their right to raise their children according to their values.” “Parents overwhelmingly want to be informed of sexual content in children's TV shows. Our new poll found that 87% of parents want TV content ratings to advise them of violence, sexual content, or other sensitive themes like LGBTQ messaging or characters in children’s TV programming. Parents should be able to make informed viewing decisions for their families, but right now, parents have no way of knowing whether LGBTQ content is in a children's program. It’s time to give parents that choice,” said Penny Nance, CEO and President, Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee Read the letter here. ###
