The State of Indiana, perhaps in a desperate attempt to catch up with the serious hardcore crazies in competing red states such as Oklahoma, Texas, or Florida, recently passed HEA 1608, a piece of legislation whose actual wording is a bit of a mess but whose intent is quite clear – Stop Indiana Public School Teachers From Turning So Many Kids LGBTQ+!
The first provision prohibits school employees from providing “any instruction to a student in prekindergarten through grade 3 on human sexuality.” At least one educator has already challenged this bit with help from the ACLU, but so far hasn’t had much luck with that.
