Stenquist was one of the lawmakers who recently endorsed DeSantis for president when he came to Utah last week.Utah has waded into these waters before In 2017, Utah repealed a law — which Equality Utah dubbed the 'No Promo Homo repeal' — that got rid of language banning the advocacy of homosexuality in public school health classes.
Utah State Board of Education member Sarah Reale, D–Salt Lake City, said this bill concept "sends the wrong message" to educators. She argued that a bill like this isn't needed because the policies already exist at the board, district and school levels.
