Tiffany Justice, a co-founder of Moms for Liberty, speaks out after the Southern Poverty Law Center labeled the parental rights organization as an 'extremist' group.
Justice told"Fox News Tonight" Wednesday that the"extremist" label was"absolutely absurd."
The co-founder added that the group is"upsetting the balance of power in public education" and believes the SPLC is engaging in an"orchestrated attempt" to"stop our voices."Moms for Liberty was founded in 2021 to"unify, educate and empower parents to defend their parental rights at all levels of government," according to the mission statement on its website.
Justice said the label wouldn’t deter the organization and that it would continue to fight for parents’ rights nationwide.
