AAP Statement on the Texas House of Representatives Committee on General Investigating October 25, 2021 Letter to the Texas Education Agency

“The freedom to express ideas and communicate with our fellow citizens is at the very center of the American ideal, and at the very heart of any effective educational experience. In that spirit, we vigorously object to this stunning abuse of power that threatens authors’ freedom to write, publishers’ freedom to publish, libraries’ freedom to lend, and the people’s right to read. Government censorship has no place in a free society.”
