The Biden Administration has created a new position within the Department of Education to counter what they are describing as a move to “ban” LGBTQ+ themed books aimed at children, some as young as five or six years old.

The statement further notes that the coordinator will “work to provide new trainings for schools nationwide on how book bans that target specific communities and create a hostile school environment may violate federal civil rights laws.”
