against instructing courses like AP African American Studies class, which was stripped down by the College Board after the Florida governor voiced concerns about “indoctrination.” Similar to arguments in favor of the Parental Rights in Education Act, proponents of these bills contend that the current legislation being debated is all about parental rights and protecting kids from ideologies that families may disagree with.
Keith Flaugh, co-founder of the Florida Citizens Alliance, an organization that is lobbying in favor of these bills, says that he believes the state needs to focus more on improving their education tactics instead of gender, sex and sexuality. “The end objective in my view is hopefully to get school districts out of the whole social justice arena and back into teaching academics,” he says.
Bailey of the ACLU Floria says these bills are “part of a larger, concerning pattern of legislation that uses the mere existence of LGBTQ+ teens and adults to chill the First Amendment right to free speech and free expression in classrooms.” This legislation adds to the approximately 300 anti-LGBTQ bills that have already been introduced at the state level across the U.S.,“I think the hypocrisy is on display when you see an unwillingness to give parents the rights to see their children respected in school when those parents may dare to disagree with the right wing politicians that are bringing these policies forward,” Wolf says.The advocates for and against these bills that TIME spoke to believe this legislation will pass.
