Montana计划限制宣传政治观点的PD教师会议,引发关于意识形态和教育筹资的辩论。 Montana plans to restrict teacher PD conferences promoting political views, sparking debate over ideology and education funding.

蒙大拿州参议院议长马特·雷吉尔(Matt Regier)在蒙大拿州公务员联合会(MFPE)会议着重讨论书籍禁止、性别意识形态和艺术审查等议题后,要求为2027年立法机构起草一份法案草案,限制他所说的促进政治议程的教师专业发展会议。 Montana Senate President Matt Regier has requested a bill draft for the 2027 Legislature to restrict teacher professional development conferences he says promote political agendas, following recordings from a Montana Federation of Public Employees (MFPE) conference that highlighted discussions on book bans, gender ideology, and art censorship. Regier和州州长Susie Hedalen认为,纳税人出资的PIR日不应该支持他们所谓的意识形态灌输,而家庭、青年和体育部则认为这项活动是正当的专业发展,有近1 000名教育工作者参加,并声称这些录音有误导性。 Regier and State Superintendent Susie Hedalen argue taxpayer-funded PIR days should not support what they call ideological indoctrination, while MFPE defends the event as legitimate professional development with nearly 1,000 educators attending and claims the recordings are misleading. 会议于10月强制性培训日举行,为期30年以上,是当时安排的若干活动之一,其中包括学生音乐节和狩猎活动。 The conference, held for over 30 years during mandatory October training days, is one of several events scheduled then, including student music festivals and hunts. 批评者说,拟议的立法不公正地针对教育者,转移了对教师招聘和留用的注意力。 Critics say the proposed legislation unfairly targets educators and distracts from teacher recruitment and retention.
