    White House tries to distance itself from DOJ, NSBA memos but says the meeting was ‘standard practice

    White House says DOJ chose memo ‘approach on their own’

    The Biden administration attempted to distance itself on Friday from the controversy surrounding the National School Boards Association and its efforts to coordinate with the Department of Justice and the White House prior to sending a letter to President Joe Biden which compared concerned school parents to domestic terrorists.

    Asked by whether anyone at the White House requested DOJ to write the memo from Attorney General Merrick Garland or work with NSBA to craft a letter to the president, a White House official said the situation “has nothing to do with curriculum.”

    “It is standard practice across every administration for White House officials to meet with outside stakeholders for listening sessions on a range of issues,” the spokesperson said, adding that it “makes sense to ask for examples of increasingly common threats of violence if an alarm is sounded about such a trend, regardless of circumstances.”

    The spokesperson also claimed that the White House had no involvement in the issuance of the DOJ memo, saying the “DOJ chose to take this approach on their own.”

    “We contacted DOJ after we were notified about these threats of violence because we were concerned about the pattern, and we discussed policy – not enforcement,” the White House official said.

    they are standing by Garland’s congressional testimony.
