Washington, D.C. – Congressman Josh Brecheen penned a letter with Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), and Congressman Chip Roy (R-TX) demanding answers from The Smithsonian Institute for kicking out a dozen Catholic high school students and their chaperons for wearing pro-life beanies. 

Fox News’ Matteo Cina wrote an exclusive report on the announcement.

“The Smithsonian is a federal entity that receives more than $1 billion of our taxpayer dollars each year. It is unacceptable that federal employees would trample on pro-life students’ First Amendment rights. That’s why we’re demanding answers to ensure this violation of the Constitution never happens again,” said Congressman Josh Brecheen.
