The White House said the proposal would marginalize LGBTQ children who are 'already vulnerable to bullying.'
For Pride Month 2021, we're celebrating members of the transgender community as a part of a special series called "Our America: Who I'm Meant to Be."
The measure, which has also been introduced in the state House of Representatives, has drawn widespread condemnation from activist groups who argue it would marginalize LGBTQ children and families and stifle discussions about LGBTQ history. Both bills are still in the committee phase. Republican Sen. Dennis Baxley, who sponsored the proposal, told lawmakers in the Senate Education Committee on Tuesday that the bill wouldn't forbid spontaneous discussions but would bar districts from incorporating LGBTQ topics into curriculum.
"Some discussions are for with your parents. And I think when you start opening sexual-type discussions with children, you're entering a very dangerous zone," Baxley said. Asked about the proposal on Tuesday, Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said,"I haven't looked at any particulars of anything but I do think you've seen instances in which kids are encouraged to be doing stuff with like a gender ideology and I think the parents really do need to be involved in that."
