To support the idea that it is class based, I suspect we will find it is being selectively applied to poorer communities, which specifically drives the most able-to-change-jobs (often the best) librarians to move to other communities where this is not being applied.
If you don’t think that Republicans are interested in an all-out assault on libraries in general, I kindly suggest you check a book out about it from your local library (while you still can).
No, not at all, I just think calling this socio-economic class-based is incorrect. Being in school is not a class (no pun intended).

I base my assumption on historic selective enforcement of other laws with similar vulnerability to abuse - such as selective enforcement during prohibition.
I believe that if librarians, of any kind, are being targeted, we should suspect class warfare because libraries are historically a source of improved equity.
So my assertion is that any action taken against any library should be examined carefully under a lens of suspected class warfare.
