'Book-banning crusade' across the U.S.: What does it cost American taxpayers?

Once a school receives a challenge to a book, districts have to front the cash to pay staffers to review and remove the material. And there are additional costs to store the books.

In Northampton County, Pennsylvania, Nazareth Area School District officials estimate it could cost the district $109,931.74 to pay staffers to review 23 books challenged by Northampton County Moms for Liberty, a local chapter of the Florida-based Moms for Liberty.

Is this good use of taxpayer funds?

Is a war on knowledge ever a good thing?

What can good people do to stop this?

"I'm a strong supporter of public education and I actually don't mind paying taxes to support our public schools. However, I am appalled that my taxes are being wasted to combat a campaign to limit what students can read," said Evan Davis, a Nazareth resident at a recent district school board meeting.

"I pay taxes in order to educate our youth – not to deny them educational freedom," said Davis, who called the limits on books students can read "not only detrimental," but "dangerous."

Money well spent to remove the filth in our schools.

No books are being banned, liar.

Probably a pittance of their budget. If the books are online it could be done for a fraction of that. One person should be able to do it in a day

While I do not support the actions many are taking on attacking books, I have a hard time believing it would cost $110,000 to review 23 books. I'd easily do it for a fifth of that.

If librarians would use a little common sense, and stop trying to push the agenda into which they have been indoctrinated, none of that would be needed. As to the expense, to see Democrats/Leftists/Wokesters pretend to worry about spending tax dollars is laughable.

Exactly....You know a liberoidal is full of shit when they start mewling about how much something is going to cost.

That was my initial reaction as well, but the process is extensive, and the vetters must be vetted - trained, qualified & possess various degrees.

You don't want any Tom, Dick, Harry or Donald doing this.

Millions of dollars for a war on knowledge when the money could be spent to educate.

A travesty.

Keeping porno out of the hands of minor children ≠ a "war on knowledge".

Never one single time in history have the guys banning the books turned out to be the good guys.

Not only is it a matter of dishonesty, it is also a matter of lack of intelligence at work here.

Its a drop in the bucket compared to what’s spent educating migrant claim jumpers from mexico and beyond thanks to lib swamp rats in washington

But you might call that a different issue

The left does not care how much it spends grooming children into the anything-goes sex culture which harms children for the rest of their lives

Yes, yes...They must be thoroughly vetted to ensure that they are 100% on board with corrupting young, innocent children...


Evil bastard.

Well, Divis might be a moron. I have NEVER known a parent that didn't ban certain books but also music, movies, foods, etc. Heck even at Halloween..Don't go to that house, you've had enough candy, time to go home,etc
Davis is either not all there or a hypocrite.

Look at it coldly, why would anyone pay money to support schools and NOT care what they spend it on. You look at banning in the exact opposite way many parents do. I don't want a book 'On Barfy and her sex friends' if it means not learning Shakespeare or HOmer or Plato
You say "Impossible'

Calif. Teacher Stirs Controversy by Taking Shakespeare Off Syllabus​

First of all only the worthless ass government could spend 5k to review a book.

Second if you cock suckers weren’t trying to push porn in schools there would be no cost at all.

You worried about spending 110k? Sue the person that approved this garbage for a school library to begin with and get it from them.

Because they desperately want that porn in our schools.
