Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin has appointed Meg Bryce, the daughter of the late U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, to the Virginia Board of Education.

Bryce in 2023 ran for the Albemarle County School Board, and lost. Her critics note she has ties to Moms for Liberty, a group founded in 2021 that fights the “woke agenda” and supports the ban of “dangerous” books from school libraries.

State Del. Katrina Callsen (D-Albemarle County) described Bryce as “a failed Moms for Liberty candidate,” while state Sen. Schuyler VanValkenburg (D-Henrico County) said she “spent a year running for school board embroiled in culture wars.” “Her extensive background in education, her advocacy for student-centered policies, and her commitment to restoring common sense in education for all Virginia students will be instrumental in ensuring that every parent, student, and teacher receives the essential resources and support needed to thrive,” Youngkin spokesperson Christian Martinez said in a statement.
