New York is spending hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to bring drag queens to city schools.
More than $207,000 in state funds has been paid to Drag Queen Story Hour NYC, a state chapter, according to the New York Post. At least 49 drag programs have been organized at 34 public elementary, middle, and high schools, according to the chapter's website.
"I can't believe this. I am shocked," said State Assembly candidate Helen Qiu, who is also a mother to an 11-year-old."I would be furious if he was exposed without my consent. This is not part of the curriculum."The total funding includes $50,000 from New York State's Council on the Arts, alongside $157,000 in funding from the city's departments of Education, Cultural Affairs, Youth and Community Development, and even the Department of Transportation.
Drag Queen Story Hour has been a source of controversy for years. Initially hosting story hours in public libraries, the events have grown more popular during Pride month and began appearing at other public events. It sparked a notable amount of controversy in Texas after angry parents protested outside a"Drag the Kids to Pride" event at a Dallas gay bar on June 6.
