Parental Rights Amendment

PRA Letter to House 11-15-2011: The PRA would amend the U.S. Constitution to declare that “the liberty of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children” is a “fundamental right.” Proponents of the PRA have explicitly argued that “direct the upbringing” must be very broadly construed, and would include, among many other things, “health care” decisions.) The amendment goes on to say that no level of government may “infringe upon this right” except by “demonstrating that its governmental interest . . . is of the highest order and not otherwise served.”
