A former Pennsylvania GOP lieutenant governor candidate and leader in the state’s conservative school board movement, Clarice Schillinger, was sentenced to 12 months probation for a misdemeanor alcohol charge this week. That came after she pleaded no contest Wednesday to supplying alcohol to minors at her daughter’s 17th birthday party last fall, an event that police say ended with drunk adults assaulting intoxicated minors.
Schillinger, a self-styled advocate of "parental rights," spearheaded the right-wing Back to School PA political committee that spent over $500,000 on "flipping woke school boards." In the 2022 GOP primary, she ran for the lieutenant governor and lost.
