Asra Nomani joined Fox News' "Fox & Friends" on Wednesday morning wearing a T-shirt with the words, |I'm a mom, not a 'domestic terrorist.'
"It's outrageous what the federal government is doing now,| said Nomani, who is vice president for strategy and investigations for Parents Defining Education.
"We have parents right now waking up from sea to shining sea to bring their children to school, to urge them into the day, and what has happened now is that the federal government and the National School Board Association has declared a war on parents," she said.
Nomani responded that the only goal of parents is to speak up for their children.
"All we have done over the past year is stand up and speak up for children. It's unconscionable that the Federal Bureau of Investigations should even spend a minute thinking about us," she said.
"We all reject violence and all we want to do is protect our kids," Nomani added.

Her efforts on social media also have caught the attention of Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul.
"The punk who assaulted the policeman defending my wife and I in DC went free but the Biden Admin. labels concerned parents as 'domestic terrorists?'" Paul tweeted alongside a post from Nomani urging parents to contact the National School Board Association in response to its letter.

Nomani's interview followed a memorandum Garland sent to the FBI on Monday concerning "threats" against school personnel.
"In recent months, there has been a disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence among school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff who participate in the vital work of running our nation's schools," the attorney general wrote.
"The Department takes these incidents seriously and is committed to using its authority and resources to discourage these threats, identify them when they occur, and prosecute them when appropriate," Garland said.
"In the coming days, the Department will announce a series of measures designed to address the rise in criminal conduct directed toward school personnel," he continued. "Coordination and partnership with local law enforcement is critical to implementing these measures for the benefit of our nation's nearly 14,000 public school districts."

In a letter to President Joe Biden dated Sept. 29, the National School Boards Association pleaded with him to treat parents who oppose mask mandates and the teaching of critical race theory as domestic terrorists.
The NSBA letter said, "As these acts of malice, violence, and threats against public school officials have increased, the classification of these heinous actions could be the equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes."
