The bill was approved by the majority-Republican Senate on a 19-5 vote. It requires parental approval for teachers at public schools, including colleges and universities, to use a minor student’s pronoun that is “inconsistent” with the student’s biological sex or a name that’s not listed on the student’s birth certificate. It also would prohibit schools from requiring teachers to use the pronouns or name a student uses.
“What it really comes down to is a teacher protection act,” Republican Sen. Mark Johnson, the bill's Senate sponsor, said before the vote. North Dakota lawmakers failed to override Republican Gov. Doug Burgum's veto of a similar proposal Monday. Burgum said teaching was a hard enough profession without government “forcing teachers to take on the role of pronoun police.”
Finally some common sense....Canada?
Wow. Imagine if people got so impassioned about protecting children against things like child porn, and sexual predators. There are many more of them
We need that level headed law makers here in Canada
The party of free speech is telling people what they can say
Focused on the hard hitting issues I see 🫠
If we didn't live in a 🤡🌏 this legislation wouldn't be necessary.
Pronouns is a concern about safety of kids, not the guns!!!
Good
An entire state focusing on victimizing 0.12% of its population. Can't wait for tornado season, hopefully the whole shit-house gets tossed into the sea.
What's the timeline for this to come to Canada?
Stop catering to the 1%
We need to do this across the board. This has all gotten way out of hand
Great Keep them bans coming Outlaw transgenderism
We need this law across all Provinces and Territories.
Should focus on tornado recovery and less about pronoun schmonoun.
I'm fortunate enough to have no interaction with the sexually confused but if I did I would refer to them by what their birth certificate or DNA said they were. Easy peasy.
The woke agenda is crashing and burning in the USA. Can we do the same here in Canada?
The media is sure in love with anything Trans…
Cross dressers should always be called cross dressers
I am so relieved that they are focusing on serious issues that affect everyone.
