Dueling Videos: NJEA and Senate GOP Slug It Out on YouTube (Or Somewhere)

This is a press release from New Jersey Assembly Republicans. The “parody video” they reference slams NJEA for its own ad (not a parody) that calls parents who protest the new sexual health standards “extremists.” The NJ GOP ad is no longer available on YouTube but can be seen here or here or here. NJEA’s original ad (still on YouTube) is here.

Assembly Republican Leader John DiMaio commented on the New Jersey Education Association having YouTube remove the Assembly Republican Office’s parody video of the union’s nationally-criticized TV commercial that accuses parents of being extremists.

“The NJEA’s action only drives home the Republicans’ point that they will stop at nothing to censor differing opinions, whether it is parents at board meetings or political speech in a video,” DiMaio (R-Warren) said. “Instead of being willing to have a conversation, they would rather completely shut down people who are concerned or disagree. This is why parents are so irate. The NJEA pushes controversial policies and ideology on our children and when there is push back, they bring out the censorship police.”
