Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Law, popularly known by critics as the “don’t say gay” bill, went into effect on Friday, restricting what teachers can say about gender and sexual orientation.

The law, signed March 28 by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis , is the first of its kind in the country. It prevents teachers in kindergarten through third grade from discussing gender and sexual orientation in class and restricts what they can say in upper grades to what is developmentally appropriate, without saying what that is.

The White House encouraged any student or parent experiencing discrimination to file a complaint with the Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights.

It said: “Already, there have been reports that ‘Safe Space’ stickers are being taken down from classrooms. Teachers are being instructed not to wear rainbow clothing. LGBTQI+ teachers are being told to take down family photos of their husbands and wives—cherished family photos like the ones on my own desk. — and about.

Fine. Keep ALL sex out of schools.

Allahu Akhbar!!

Teachers should not be concerned with indoctrinating children with any sexual discussion whatsoever. There lies the problem in it's pure form.... it should not even be a conversation in schools.

Democracy Dies in Disinformation. That is neither the name nor content of the bill. FakeNews Liars

Why do the gays want to groom little children?

I thought it's the don't say straight bill.

censorship in Florida by the Trump wanna be GovRonDeSantis

These gays people must be considered to fly to Mars first elonmusk and let them fusion with aliens there😹

To kids UNDER 9 years old. Only pedos want to talk about sex with that age group.

Parental Rights In Education. Prevents all discussion of those issues (gay, straight, ect) by faculty with students.

Only dictatorships restrict the freedoms of their citizens what they may say or think. So America looks more and more like a dictatorship. Only the Americans haven't figured it out yet, they just head guns to protect their freedom that they are destroying themselves.

Who are those crazy people in pink. Probably, paid by deathsantis to wear those shirts. Cannot believe that there are any sane people left in fl!

Did we not have this same BS with Bill Clinton and our military? We’re having to repeat history because we don’t study it

Florida is ON POINT!!! 🎉

Only those who are possessed by the devil, judge how others should live, take away freedoms and create chaos in society.

Because teachers don't need to mention gender or sexual orientation outside of sex ed and no child gives two shits about a teachers gender or personal life hell most children don't want to even be at school.

Really.. School children can't learn history. They learn dysfunction of how America came to be a Great City, in lights, on the backs of slaves. However, folks will gladly allow gender confusion books, events, & choices on display/read/experiences in schools. AlternativeReality

The land of the free is't free anymore.

Ok, groomer.

And say it LOUD!

So it's ok to tell 5 year old children they're the wrong gender(sex) but wait until you're 21 to make adult decisions?!?

Republicans also pass a law that prohibits saying Trumps golden showers pee tape

Just teach math and science Not complicated

If you're teaching second grade, and you're outraged that you can't teach sex ed to 7 year olds, you should find another job.

…to children K-3. You left that part out at the end.

For those that aren’t partisan hacks, the ACTUAL name of the law is the Parental Rights on Education bill. It gives parents rights in the education of THEIR children, which is offensive to the propagandists at the Jeff Bezos owned Washington Post.

Most people support the bill. Teachers aren’t behavior experts; they have average educations themselves and have no business telling kids about these things.

We don't talk about HETEROSEXUAL issues with children.. Why the hell would we talk about GAY issues with kids? This is STUPID. But again, the 'in your face' gays just can't help themselves.

No can do... freedom of speech And you just give pedophile a place to hide in the open now

Why would any adult want to discuss their sexual behavior with children?

Florida is crazy

God bless GovRonDeSantis

Ban books, muffle the public; sure looking more and more like pre war Germany !

And it seems to be doing everything the “alarmists” warned about and the right-wing “read the bill” parrots insisted it wouldn’t do.
