Their reasoning? They expressed their inability to align themselves with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/new-york-state-assembly-moves-to-rename-donald-j-trump-state-park\/\" title=\"New York State Assembly Moves To Rename Donald J. Trump State Park\">organization led<\/a> by a self-proclaimed &#8220;Marxist.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During a meeting last month, the commission reviewed a tweet from Emily Drabinski, the president-elect of the American Library Association. In her tweet, Drabinski proudly described herself as a &#8220;Marxist lesbian.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Standing Firm on Constitutional Duty<\/h3>\n<p>The commission, bound by their oath of office and their duty to the Constitution, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/watch-l-a-county-health-official-caught-dancing-after-telling-business-to-close-owner-says\/\" title=\"WATCH: L.A.

Her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/montana-leaves-american-library-association-over-marxist-lesbian-president\/\" title=\"Montana departs American Library Association due to president's 'Marxist lesbian' identity.\">term officially began<\/a> this month.<\/p>\n<p>The tweet in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/report-here-are-the-10-worst-colleges-for-free-speech\/\" title=\"Report: Here Are The 10 Worst Colleges For Free Speech\">question reads<\/a>, &#8220;I just cannot believe that a Marxist lesbian who believes that collective power is possible to build and can be wielded for a better world is president-elect of ALA. I am so excited for what we will do together. Solidarity. And my mom is so proud. I love you mom.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Responding to the Montana State Library Commission&#8217;s decision, Drabinski tweeted a brief statement, saying, &#8220;That is not the Montana \u2014 or Montanans \u2014 I know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Washington Examiner has reached out to the American Library Association for their comment on the matter.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Montana State Library Commission voted to sever ties with the American Library Association due to its leader&#8217;s self-proclaimed &#8220;Marxist&#8221; stance.
