LinkAlluding to Scandal, Florida School Board Urges Member to Resign
The resolution against Bridget Ziegler, a co-founder of the activist group Moms for Liberty, is nonbinding. She did not address critics who called her anti-L.G.B.T.Q. policies hypocritical.
The elected school board in Sarasota, Fla., took the rare step on Tuesday of calling for the resignation of one of its own members, the latest development in an ongoing scandal involving a power couple in state Republican politics.
With a 4-to-1 vote, the school board rebuked Bridget Ziegler, a member for nine years, saying that the drama engulfing her and her husband had become too much of a distraction. Ms. Ziegler was the only member to vote against the nonbinding resolution; she gave no indication that she would resign
Ms. Ziegler, 41, dismissed the nonbinding resolution as toothless, since only the governor has the authority to remove school board members.
I am disappointed, she said in brief remarks. She did not mention the investigation into her husband.
Bridget Ziegler is probably a world-class narcissist. Shes willing to stand defiantly in the spotlight of her hypocrisy (and ambition) without flinching. Im relishing her humiliation.
