A lawyer says the Supreme Court's ruling that Maryland parents who have religious objections can pull their children from public school lessons using LGBTQ storybooks is a historic victory for parental rights.

By a 6-3 ruling Friday, the Supreme Court sided with parents who sued Montgomery County Public Schools in Maryland to opt their children out of mandatory LGBTQ-inclusive curriculum, overturning a 2023 federal court ruling and handing a legal victory to conservatives who opposed the district’s policies on religious grounds.
