Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has reportedly reappointed Tina Descovich, co-founder of the conservative group Moms for Liberty, to the Florida Commission on Ethics.
Descovich, who previously served on the Brevard County School Board, co-founded Moms for Liberty in 2021 to advocate for parental rights in education.
The organization has since gained national attention for its involvement in school board meetings and educational policy debates, often opposing mask mandates and certain curriculum content.
The Florida Commission on Ethics is responsible for investigating complaints of ethical violations by public officials and ensuring adherence to the state’s ethics laws.
Descovich’s reappointment aligns with Governor DeSantis’s ongoing efforts to influence educational policy in the state, reflecting his administration’s focus on parental involvement and conservative values in schools.
This move has been met with mixed reactions. Supporters argue that Descovich’s presence on the commission will ensure that parental concerns are adequately represented, while critics contend that her association with Moms for Liberty could lead to partisan decision-making within the commission.
Governor DeSantis’s decision to reappoint Descovich underscores his commitment to reshaping Florida’s educational landscape, emphasizing parental rights and conservative principles.
As the commission continues its work, Descovich’s role will likely influence the direction of ethics oversight in the state’s education system.
